Civic Center

This Playin' is balls to the wall. Uptempo breakneck pace all the the way through. Bill K is a pure force of nature. Delivers every listen . No Donna scream; don't have to turn your system down, 5 stars !!!!!

Best transition into DDHNM. Hard, gripping, ripping, focused, trance inducing, flooring...my favorite! This whole jam is perfect...can't believe this isn't voted higher.

Nassau Coliseum

This one never lets up throughout; no stops for feedback or noise, just the whole band dripping one power psychedelia all the way through. Definitely heady!
Stagger Lee

Winterland Arena

Overall a great version; the best I have heard. Jerry's solo perfectly nails the Stagger Lee melody and the whole vibe is just right.
