Aggressive vibe with JG choking his guitar's neck while firing flares.

Quietly sweeping with metallic disortion tones that Jer used later in the '80's for WF and Deals. I always liked it when he went a little metal.

Jerry digs for it and throws aces in the jam.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Nov. 22, 1972
Austin Municipal Auditorium

If you like Europe ‘72 stylings dig into the fall tour through the Southwest. This CC is duly jangly, jaunty and whirling while during the Rider hear Jerry go ripshit and shoot out ALL the lights of the saloon. Keith is stellar, Phil is everywhere, Bdubs supports grandly and Billy the Kidd keeps it tight. We all love a hot Rider and for me this one never disappoints. Whole show is noteworthy in a hallowed year of this bands history.
He's Gone

Hey Grendel - if you like this one take a spin on 11/22/72 ... it’s got a pretty special He’s Goneness vibe in my book.
Not Fade Away

Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Muscle bound rocker > Top5 GDTRFB > steriod popping Randy Savage NFA reprise. Crusty hot sauce on the board but you'll still feel the heat if you like rock'n'roll.
