Charton '74 fits this bill.  A pretty sloppy show, and the worst YMB you've
ever heard, but worth it to see the band fighting against drunkeness and
rustiness.  John looks totally out of it.

A great combination of craziness and competent playing is Cleveland '75.  A
very long show, very high energy and Pete plays great.  Can't see John from
the camera angle though.  Highly recommended!

Pontiac '75.  Widely available, great sound and camerawork.  Pete seems
pissed off during a lot of it.

A combination of brandy and cocaine perhaps?
This is Chicago '79, a closed circuit show, over 2 hours.

If anyone has the footage from Chicago 1975, what is it like?  I've heard
it's only a few songs so I passed it up.  Is it worth buying?
