A triumphant, anthemic version that shows another, powerful side to it. Great piano work gives it a nice flavor.

Just transcendentally perfect. The whole set from Cryptical on is monumental '71 headiness.

About here Playin' starts stretching out. Only 7 min long, but there's a lot of charge here: Listen to all of them thinking "let's take this furthur".

A little more love for the early ones? A strong and powerful version that never loses focus. Beautiful.

Bristling hot show opener shows how they meant business. Dec. '71 is special transition time and this one pins you to the wall with energy.

I disregarded this show for too many years, and I'm not sure why now, 'cause its got the goods on every number. This Dew owns its votes. Listen and love.

It sounds like Keith has twenty fingers. Killer piano work on this uptempo jumper.

Everything about this set just kicks ass. FreedomHaul said it well.

Hadn't listened to this show on the box set yet, and sweet jeezus this PiTB got a big upgrade. Beg, borrow, or rip the box version and be amazed. Any show that kicks of with this kind of monster is going to be very good indeed. The good just gets better.

The SSDD is over-the top. Total balls-to-the-wall jam.
