Like the night before, a great version from a legendary show that I'm surprised wasn't already here...

Shocked this wasn't here already...gorgeous version from a legendary show, about two weeks before they recorded the studio version.

Strand Lyceum

For a song with less diversity from one version to the next, this one is better than most, and rare coming so late in the show...

Truckin'
May 7, 1972
Bickershaw Festival

Love Pig's organ solo on this one
Good Lovin'
April 26, 1972
Jahrhunderthalle

Their foot was on the gas the whole way for this one! Somewhat short, but oh-so-sweet!
One More Saturday Night
May 11, 1972
Rotterdam Civic Hall

Does anyone know why this was left off of the official release? One of the best and most unique of the tour IMO...Keith is fantastic on this one!
Sing Me Back Home
May 4, 1972
Olympia Theater

Probably my personal favourite; it's the version that made me fall in love with this song. Post-E72 versions aren't the same without Pig's organ; it just fits so well for a gospel song...
Sugar Magnolia

Fillmore East

Surprised this isn't higher! Great version off of Ladies And Gentlemen...
