Rollicking and hard-charging good time set closer after a brain-melting Playin'.

In spite of muffled sound in need of a cleanup, this one has all the swagger and triumph of the best of '72. BTW fans take heed!

Surprised not to see this here. The trans has extra oomph to it and the band sails along in perfect sync. Great fun.

Pristine and fun. There's a cogent, almost album-tight quality to it.

The mix is off at first, vocals lost, but hang in there and you'll hear one of Jerry's most heavy metal solos on Loser ever. Absolute shredder.

The pace, throb, and intensity alone puts this in a special category. Add the rocking fills that Jer puts behind the driving (truck in') rhythm, the tires whapping pavement sense, and that killerdiller solo mentioned above and hell yeah, this is world class stuff. Ignore at your own peril.

Hey Okozmic! Welcome to the site, but really? '74? No Help-Slip-Frank? No Estimated Prophet? No Cassidy or The Wheel? I'm as curmudgeonly an old '70s head as they make 'em, but even I've been known to enjoy a Shakedown Street or a - gasp! - Terrapin Station now and again.... Cheers!

Wow. In addition to the subtle and heartfelt interpretation of the lyrics, which I've always felt were some of Dylan's best, Jerry rips a killer solo toward the end (07:54). Great great show.

Garage band extraordinaire. Good old rock and roll.

Listen and just try not singing along.
