Sloppy start but the rest is played well. Not as good as many 77 versions but it deserves a mention.

Hampton Coliseum

Good version nestled into a unique first set. Neat crowd reactions. BTW the title is "Tons of Steel" not "100000 Tons of Steel"

This is very good, a mellow companion to the aggressive 11/18/72 version.

Yes this is very similar to the 1/22/78! Very good explosive jam in the middle. Any others?

Good one, there's a new matrix with better sound. This is solid but doesn't touch the DeKalb version later in the month.

Solid, considering the date. Good energy as the second song after midnight on NYE.
