Fast and fun, the crowd really digging it. Great show in spite of some sound quality issues.

Rehearsal, no vocals, brilliant explorations of the song in development. Great insight into the boys' collective mind.

Tight is right. This one almost sounds through-composed, but doesn't lose the soaring spontaneity either. Beautiful version.

One of the better ones, this. Seriously underrated. There's good SBD, so avoid the rough AUD.

A long strange trip. This one took the lucky audience far furthur out and back again. Love the description above of this as a "buffet".

Delicate and sparkling. Has the melodic theme bubbling up to the surface here and there, which is really different from the other Playin's in Summer/Fall '72. For the AUD-hesitant: The show up to this point is pretty rough, but there's a good SB version on the archive of Playin' through NFA.
