6/7 and 6/9 get all the attention, show more love for this one

Brokedown Palace

Fillmore East

The acoustic set is unbeliebable. We get Ripple, Brokedown and Box of Rain. Three of my favourite songs back to back.

You can tell a good Wharf Rat (by the way she shines??) just by listening to the outro jam

While I'm tiping this I'm listening to the 6/7/77 version which currently has only 4 votes, and in my opinion deserves to be as high a this version, if not higher. I don't think this version is overrated, the thing is that every other may 77 version is just underrated because they are very similar although they are consistently great

Doesn't particularly shine over any other may 77 performance of the song (they were all above average, but otherwise I don't see what it's doing in first place)
