| Dick's Review | This starts off with a totally unique array of songs but only Franklin's Tower has much to it. The 1st set is nothing special about average especially for the way they are playing these days! Scarlet Begonias is always pretty entertaining but this one is nothing profound more in the class of the performance quality of the 1st set. Estimated Prophet > Eyes Of The World is also pretty average. Hamza El Din adds some uniqueness to a good show at best. Everyone I know felt that this was a great show but I feel that it is just about the same intensity as 7-1-79. | |

| Dick's 2nd Review | This board is excellent and makes this show sound more impressive than I felt after listening to the audience tape. This is a good show as is 7-1-79 - Seattle actually! Not Fade Away is better than most modern versions at least. Actually it is very entertaining and does quite a bit towards making this a very nice 2nd set. |
