The jittery bridge between an epic, 19-min Truckin' and a pretty cool TOO...

Kicks off an epic 34-song show in style with an excellent solo from Keith!

About as good as you're going to get for this tune live. Between the setlist goodies and the performance, I think this show is a candidate for top 10-15 of the stacked year that is 1972...

Billy is absolutely nuts during the solo!

Reminds me a bit more of the Europe versions than the Fall ones surrounding it somehow...not that they're all that different, I guess.

Fantastic version...way underrated IMO. The rubato feel they were able to achieve on songs like this in the one-drummer era disappeared post-hiatus...

This is the only time DS and Brokedown were ever played side-by-side, let alone flowing into each other...
