Beat it on Down The Line

Danish Center

This could have been the debute of this song. A very young Bobby is kind of yelling it. It's interesting to hear how these early covers evolved.

This is a beautiful and emotional version, it's hard to hear over the crowd noise, but they where digging it!

Bobby was singing with clarity and authority on this one. This is a good tight version.

Billy and Micky lay down a tight rythm for every one to lock into, and they do. Crowd noize on all sources that i've heard.

Jerry's voice isn't in the beat condition here, but he was singing with confidence and passion.
Samson and Delilah

Melkweg

Good energetic version from a European tour that doesn't get nearly as much attention as 72. This one is well worth a listen!

Community Theatre

Good 68 version & a tight T11. To bad they only played 3 songs & almost a half an hour of Drums.

^^ This is a very good version. Jerry's vocals and guitar playing are strong. Good vocal harmonies too. Brent's organ work is very nice on this one.

^^ Controlled chaos, just what you would want at a 69 Fillmore show!
