imo, 5/8/77 and 5/9/77 combined, created a continuum of energy through all four sets. while 5/8 is often proclaimed to be the best from '77, or the best show ever, or what have you, i think it's half of 4 incredible sets of gd music.

here's a link to stream 5/9: http://archive.org/d...oman.77462.shnf

enjoy.

The Boston show on 5/7 was OK too.

LOVE 5/9, specially the Help>Slip>Fanklins. Good stuff!!

Comes a Time from this show is incredible... And these shows are 35 years old and the sound is better than what you hear today.. The GD were way of ahead of their time with the sound...

Yep. It's too bad they flipped a switch and sucked for the next 18 years.

agreed!
There were some spectacular shows on the 1990 spring tour as well!

[musicfan]

Yeah... Alls I know is I had a lot of fun and saw a bunch of good show's in the 80's and 90's...

Great show, indeed! 5/7 - 5/9 was quite the run

[gram-man]

Even fall '90 after Brent passes there are some good shows. Hornsby was there to light the fire under Jerry. It doesn't really start to go downhill all way until after Bruce leaves and Vince is all alone on keys. Without anyone else in the band able to throw the solo to, once Jerry finished a solo, all that was goin on the stage was everyone else playing rhythm.

yeah yeah yeah

I have a crispy '82 show cranked up right now
