An early short version, coming in at about 7 minutes, but the jam is intense and wonderful.

this is a perfectly fine version, but this is about finding other songs from this concert that are registered but not showing.

Kinda' surprised this hasn't been listed. It's a worthy version.

Long and smooth version.

Selland Arena

One of the most interesting versions with all members on, except Jerry, who plays more supportive than lead. Strong solo by Phil in which Keith plays off of him very well. A good example of "when Phil is on the band is on".

This is a keeper version. Good energy with more than one peak.

an interesting version, too bad it's difficult to find nice clean copies and versions of this concert as it's worth a listen. Anwar Sadat was assassinated on this date, which I'm sure resulted in this being played. Jerry is good but a bit subdued in his song selection. For the 2nd set here are his songs - High Time, He's Gone, The Wheel, Stella Blue and Brokedown Palace.
