Nice upbeat party time tune, Philly seemed to bring out the best in this song for some reason.

Excellent rock n roll punch of a really hot around and around followed by a rocking Johnny b goode, with some nice Donna help and a ripping Jerry.

Hot, nice sick funk groove to this one. Love the early Brent NFA's.

I was referring to the dark star drums. I’m well aware of the fact that 1972 is just Billy. I prefer the band with just one drummer. I admit it was a poor choice of words.

Cleveland Public Auditorium

One vocal flub towards the end almost derails the song but Jerry recovers than gives a more vigorous workout to the exit jam of the song to make up for his miscue.

Great swing. Nice organ work from Brent. Cool as an opener. Sets a nice laid back vibe.

Fun. Probably the most phish like thing they do. This one is pretty well done and not as sloppy as some. Mostly just Brent and Phil.

One of the few versions actually worth seeking out. Fantastic before they often played it on autopilot.
