Great opener at perhaps the most underrated show of the year, at least based upon the ratings here...I have it as a Top 25 show of '72.

I think November '72 was the best period for this song, and this one is no exception. Phil crushes the ending.

Excellent version, placed unusually late in the show. Part of one of the best second sets ever...

cgarces, like you, I have this phenomenal show second only to Rotterdam for the tour, and both of them trailing only 2/13/70 overall...
Drums

I like to view these little drum breaks within an epic DS or TOO as a pit stop to repair the spaceship along the journey...
Big Railroad Blues

Another tune that really benefits from Pig's organ IMO
He's Gone

One of the most graceful glides to the finish...beautiful.
