Bobby's on, tight version. Short - but you can hear hints of where Playin' will go in '72.

Mysterious movement from acoustic to electric inside this gem. Moves into a great Darkstar.

Lots of fun with solo after solo going in all kinds of directions.

The H>S transition is just exactly perfect, as Bobby announces before they tear into it. Tight, pristine musicality here, complete with that mind-bending buzz saw tone an some form-bending riffing before knotting us backwards into the Franklin's. Top five for me definitely.

Jerry rides a tsunami wave across this one. The solo is shredding, and listen to Phil. Jer might be the wave, but Phil's the water.

Very special long jam before bringing Pig back in. Not a vocal version - no rap - but worth it for the jam. Do any heads out there know whether this jam has a name? I recall hearing similar themes elsewhere, though can't totally recall where right now.

Grindingly out of tune. Rough. No vote.

Very heavy explosive jam, in spite of or above and over the kooky chanting. Leads into a "The Main Ten" jam that just blows me away.
