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.

This is a very early show for Keith, he was fitting in well already! Phil was the driving fource behind this one, though!

Golden Hall

This date doesn't show up on the archive. Is it a special release?

Lakeland Civic Center

This is a clean and well paced version. Bobby and Jerry's vocal exchange is just right. Jerry's solo is kind of laid back, but it does the job.

I could write about 2 paragraphs about this version, but I think that HOLY FUCK says it all!

This was a great, energetic show, as was the one on 04-15-69 in this same venue. A little psychedelic magic, in Omaha, Nebraska!
