Tight and right, with beautiful jamming and solid groupthink throughout. Headphones only for archive version: HELP US ON THIS ONE CHARLIE MILLER!!!

Headphones only (sound problems), but so worth it - liquid crystal lightning Jerry jaming at it's best. Deserves many listens.

Archive copy sounds like its recorded through a tin can, but excellent groove, jam. For headphones only.

Massive and powerful. Jerry and Keith are just brilliant. OK, that all from me on this great show.

Really lifts off and sends you out there. Beautiful exploratory jams before the first chorus and leading into MAMU.

cgarces is right about this one. This is as solid rockin' a heady version as any. Sounds to me like it has Pig on organ and Keith on keys, which is a rare treat indeed.

This and the one from the previous night are key transitional Playin's that show the crack in the door to the spacetime bender that it becomes throughout '72. They're both worth more than one spin, and though I think the 25th is a bit more coherent, this one has the openness and freedom that we come to associate with Playin' ever after and is probably my favorite of the two.

This is how this song should have always been played: With Jer on luscious pedal steel and Phil on beautifully harmonic backup vocals.

Gritty and soulful version. Check out Charlie Miller's cleanup for a great sound, with everyone clear and crisp in the mix.
