Audio quality is the only thing that holds this one down. Get some headphones and imagine where this should be on the list.

This one catches my ear as the best '71 version, maybe it's because it is practically 1972.
Not Fade Away

Harding Theatre

Fans of '71 will wonder why this one is so far down. 11-15-71 still takes the cake, but this one beats Halloween in my opinion.

Jahrhunderthalle

They are all really good towards the top, but the tempo, and Jerry's solo hits my ear just right on this one.
Bertha

Hollywood Palladium

The only thing better than a Bertha opener, is a 9 min Bertha opener.

With meaning by all who dared.
