Hard-swingin' version with lots of oomph behind it. Sweet show.

A dynamite set opener, worth the ride in spite of some rough aud/soundboard patches.

Phil in good form, high energy and an epic 1st set. A must for '73 fans.

More hard rockin' than others in the tour. Stretches out a bit more too, though rough in places has great energy.

For a song that I'll admit to tuning out often, I'd have to rate this one much much higher than its present 2 votes. This kicks off with a high voltage, almost Cumberland feel and never lets up. Relentless drive, uptempo chaotic whitewater feel, Jerry ablaze with ideas. A great version.

Great story behind this one in "Long Strange Trip" told by Dennis Wiz Leonard about 15 minutes into the 3rd Act. One of the all time great moments capping Europe '72.

Keith's ascending power chords as Bobby ramps it up are just brilliant. I haven't heard it quite like that before. Just brilliant.

Some of Keith's best (and therefore the GD's best) piano soloing ever. Just fantastic.
