A monster show, always underrated due to poor circulation. I swear the boys are all on mushrooms, and its a best friends birthday.

This version easily beats 9-27-72, and what a ripper it is! This whole show has got to be one of the top 77 shows. I rank this one 2nd only behind 3-18-77. Guess these early 77 versions are the best, although 72-73 versions are good contenders.

I more of a 70's NFA fan, but this has got to be my all time favorite Brent version! to wrap up a great 2nd set. underrated in my mind. This NFA can compete with 77.
