Phil is high in the mix. One of the best '71 versions, I believe.

He's Gone
Aug. 25, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

The gospel part does not wear out its welcome as in other versions. This is the sort of He's Gone I like. Unlike some first sets, the band is "on" from the get-go. Strange that this show, coming between the last great Europe one and just before Veneta, get so little attention.

Just listen to that bass! Currently, rated #36 of the Keith era. It has to be better than some of those, doesn't it? Listen and compare.
It's All Over Now Baby Blue

They played It's All Over Now in the first set. I think that's where the confusion lies.

Jaunty good-time tune which is perfect first set swinging with your main squeeze. Nothing wrong here.

The drums overwhelm (at least, as mixed on RT. I was never that keen on this song, but this is unlistenable.
