Just a full-on rocking get-up-and-jump version. Keith's blazes here.

Long fast and beautiful China jam to open 2nd set. Forgotten show? Check it out, heads, you won't regret it.

Crowd pumped up for this 1st set opener. Juiced and tight. Starts one hell of show.

Playin' In The Band

Hofheinz Pavilion

I always consider this and the 18th's as key transitional versions between the '72 and '73 sounds as it relates to PiTB. Can you imagine after the night before deciding "hmmm, that was great but there's still something more in there. Let's do it again tomorrow...". Oh, and on its own merits this one deserves so many more votes than it has - it's overshadowed indeed by its maniac older brother from the day before. That said, the re-entry here, with Phil pulsing harmonics is just gorgeous.

Miller remix puts you right in the Phil Zone like back in the day.

Like everything in this show, this just floors it and knocks everything out of its way. Hard-drivin', hard rockin', and high adrenaline. The Miller mix allows you to follow Phil just like how it sounded in the ZONE. Damn, I loved that side of the stage.

Beautiful anthemic version following one hellofa set. They're still biting down hard after hours of solid jamming, and this one has all the sweetness and light alongside the darkness and grunge that makes a great UJB so unique in their oeuvre.

Grendel, I'm pouring one for your good doggo. Sorry for your loss, man, and good for you for taking in a rescue. They're all good dogs. Is your new pup named Beowulf ?
