Dancin' in the Streets
April 14, 1978
Cassell Coliseum - Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University

*The* best year. Highs are higher than ever + everyone still dialed in…
Estimated Prophet
April 12, 1978
Cameron Indoor Stadium

One of the special nights + we all know there was something in the air (or something special ingested), and this is just another example. As previously said, “silky” + “fine” are great descriptors. What a night!
Eyes Of The World
May 22, 1977
The Sportatorium

2/26/77 is my fav ‘77 show, but I have a hard time squaring that with this one. Just astounding from start-to-finish, song-to-song. And no different here; what an version! Jerr is on another planet: focused, yet improvisationally brilliant. The stamina!!!
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

The Sportatorium

Dis da one! I love me some 9/24/76, but this one can’t be beat! (And just so happens to be joined by several all-time versions, including a top-5 Eyes).
