Jer sings thrôugh a cold, but the beauty and sweetness shines through. Sounds like he would 10 years later, but with the '78 sound. Full of love.

If you can get past the migraine-inducing AUD, this is one rowdy shitkicker that riles up the fun-loving crowd.

Smokin' hot encore to finish off one brilliant mother of a show. OMSN isn't many folk's fave tune, but this one just rocks hard.

This show has biting hardness throughout, then this seems a bit la-la until the 7/4 parts, and that grit returns with crunching nastiness. Excellent!

Total badassery. This one bites down hard and has a little menace to it, as befits a song about murder.

Me and My Uncle
Sept. 26, 1972
Stanley Theatre

Glad to see this here. A hard-biting uptempo number with inspired adrenaline.

An uptempo, creative and melodic version. The outro solo ideas over the vamp are fresh and fun. Audience was in for a treat on this night....
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Sept. 24, 1972
Palace Theatre

This is an all-round gorgeous version of both songs with creative, melodic, dance-yer-face-off jamming throughout. Could be much much higher on the chart here. Plus, as stated above, the transition from DS to China Cat is thoroughly brilliant.

Beautiful ever-changing soundscapes indeed. And then Phil nukes the world around 13:30 before going gliding into 10minute jazzospheric jam and then finally getting into the astral goo-globes and space grasshoppers with some serious string grinding and a brilliant contribution from Kieth. Wow. Just wow.

Plus excellent banter before it.
