Lift off during Jerry's solo - maybe some celebratory barkers too before the show.

Garage Band John - crunch, thump crunch crunch...

'71 Losers are the raw, real deal. Biting, snakey leads with a despaired vocal delivery.

Trail dusty and raw with sparky Jerry solo - hot 71 style

Buzzy tightness with some lit fuse jamming.

Thanks - I played this on my show this morning and think it is superfine. Comparing to Spring 71 it's just wild to hear the difference (and great change with Keith who was wide awake to me on this take) - even tho I love the raw crunchy cranky CRS's.

Have always loved this one for the sustained groove they achieve - straight up musicianship over showmanship here. Not calling it the best but surely deserves a listen.

I would vote for this one again if I could - close to perfect with everyone throwing in sweet touches.

Hell yes - especially wedged in the middle of a TOO > after the show more than a few heads must've wondered if they'd actually played this. HA
