The last of a whopping 73 plays in 1972, and a nice one to finish with...

Perhaps not surprisingly, you can really hear the '73 sound starting to emerge here (and elsewhere in the show)...

Good start to a very overlooked show. This was their most common opener in '72, kicking off 32 shows, this being the last of them (opens S2 on NYE).

Good version sandwiched between HCS and the big jam suite...

Seems like this show needs more love around here...a few high vote-getters, but the whole thing rocks

I'll help you out, cgarces! This version is hot, as is the whole show, which is my favourite of '77 as well. I share your praise for 2/13/70 and 5/11/72 as well!

Too bad they didn't try this more often in '74...very beautiful, tender rendition.

Just got the Pacific Northwest '73-'74 box set and threw this on...very nice version.

Slinky indeed. Neat to have Jerry playing the organ part during the verses on this one. One of my favourite Pig raps as well...
