I think '71-'72 was probably the peak for this song...

Typically great '72 version, falling between a great "Tomorrow Is Forever" and an epic DS

Nice, brief one towards the end of a great DS

I've yet to find a bad one from '72...

Another excellent '72 version. Seems like this show is one of the most under-the-radar great '72 shows...

Beat it on Down The Line

Olympia Theater

After a subdued first three songs, they really take off here. Pig's organ is very active on this one. Love this show!

Shorter than some others on this tour, but it certainly packs a punch! Then a tight, quick slip into an epic TOO.

Jerry certainly does tear it a new one! Ferocious version.

^Agreed! Spectacular version to kick off an epic show. I rank this show 3rd for E72, narrowly behind Rotterdam and the second night in Paris...

A few slight lyrical flubs keep it below the other Europe '72 versions, but a nice, peaceful end to a great show nonetheless.
