The song list from 5/25/77 might not reveal much out of the ordinary though it s great selection of tunes , but the playing is definitely extraordinary. The first set contains outstanding versions of favorites such as Mississippi Half-Step, Jack Straw, Cassidy and Lazy Lightning gt Supplication. And the second set is primo-grade 77 from start to finish. The buoyant Scarlet Begonias gt Fire on the Mountain that kicks things off sets the tone, but then the rest of the set is a deftly played medley starting with Estimated and moving into He s Gone, a primal drum workout from Mickey and Bill, a heart-pounding version of The Other One that s split by Wharf Rat the only time those songs were played in that sequence , a joyful Wheel, and then a double-dose of Chuck Berry to bring it all back to rock n roll basics. Talk about a thrill ride
