Billy's doing some interesting stuff on the drums here! And excellent solo from Jer! Vocals too!

74 versions really captured the western tone well. Short and sweet.

Jerry calls for Bertha then proceed to royally flub the lyrics LOL. Solid bouncy version though.

Phil and Brent really escalate the dance party factor of this tune in later years. Great performance this night. Just sheer fun. Comes to awk end.

I typically tend to skip this tune. I now realize my mistake. This is beautiful. I will say, it does drag on for maybe 30 seconds too long

Nice one. Short and sweet but a good preview of the energy that will start to manifest in '72 Truckins and beyond.
