St. Stephen

Winterland Arena

Agreed, very melodic with intensity. IMO those two Winterlane shows were arguably two of the greatesr ever. Top 10 and this Stephen is one of the greats. Never understood how people think cornel is better then winterland 77 the March show included
Looks Like Rain
April 8, 1972
Wembley Empire Pool

Is there a single bad performance from Europe 72. Maybe the greatest tour in rock history. When Phil can add beutiful harmonies like that on top of his perfect bass playing what more can you say. Wish Jerry always played peddle steel on LLR.
Looks Like Rain

Rich Stadium

"Same old thing now day after day, all I see is rain. Turning grey and it looks like rain. Bobby is mellow but on point.
Mason's Children
Jan. 17, 1970
Oregon State University

Raw and powerful. The best one of a seriously under rated song. I loved the fare thee well version.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

Nassau Coliseum

This version is tight but not the best. But I must say in defense of Brent. I think he was one of the best things to ever happen to the band. He added fire and passion. The band loved him. Read Deal and try listening to blow away from the 7/7/89. Fire Mickey Hart!!! Mickey is a phenomenal drummer. Yes, I do agree that Billy can handle things on his own but mickey added a whole other demension to the band. His fills were were major part of their sound.
