Solid powerful version where they start gelling perfectly for the set.

Uptempo, intense, driving statement of holy-fuckiyana rock'n'roll. Not one I usually +1, but this is worth it. The SSDD is dynamite.

Hard-charging diesel burner here. Bobby's nice and high in the mix, so a nice treat. The jam into TOO is brilliant.

Why no love for this great show? It isn't one of the top 10 for the year - but it's '72 and they're flowing just exactly perfect.

A hot rocker with Phil high in the mix. This is a "get up and dance" version with everyone clearly having a blast.

Jeez guys, how did five people vote for a song that wasn't even performed at this show?

Not everybody's favorite song, but not the filler it's often dismissed as either. The band plays it hot and fast, and Jerry lovingly dances over it with a thousand-and-one ideas streaming of his guitar with flourish and virtuosity.

Thanks for the tip Grendel. Mr. Charlie earns yet another star for fixing one of the biggest buzzkills of '73. Enough has been said about this show, but daaaaaaaaaaamn if it didn't just get better.
