• the dvd is just ok
  considering almost everything from 65-77 was outta this world..this year pales in comparison..the video doesnt have consecutive songs for the most part..and the first set songs are better than what we're used to for second set songs..i can see why they chose to not release these sets to pay for the trip..if you want GD from this era, they really get it together for the new years show 1978 which is one of the best..so save your money from egypt and get closing of winterland 1978
