I've yet to hear a '72 version that doesn't kick at least some degree of ass, and this is no exception...

I love Bobby's "the hero died" comment at the end!

This one is a killer! I looked down at my phone expecting to be 10 minutes in and was only 4!

I'm not always a huge fan of this song -- I don't dislike it, I just never go out of my way to listen to it -- but I love this version! Really wowed me when I was listening to this show today for the 48th anniversary.

Sometimes GDTRFB is just kind of "there" in the background for me, but this one grabbed my attention!

To me, Wharf Rat always sounds better coming out of an epic DS or TOO (as this one certainly does)...it makes you feel like you had to go on a long journey through the cosmos to stumble upon August West's dock.
