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...

Seattle Center Coliseum

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

Takes on a taunting tone at this tempo...could freak you out in a certain state.

Might just be my favourite I've heard so far -- spectacular. Jerry's vocals are gorgeous, and the dynamic swells are grand, yet smooth.

One of the best I've heard...wow!
Mexicali Blues

Salt Palace

One of the better ones I've heard...jubilant!

Incredible solo by Jerry -- so smooth and full of ideas!
