I've yet to hear a '72 version that doesn't kick at least some degree of ass, and this is no exception...

And We Bid You Goodnight

Bobby starts to bid the crowd "goodnight" as "Johnny B. Goode" finishes, but Jerry has other plans and leads them into this sweet version...

This one gets quite out there, yet remains smooth and melodic...A+ from me. Shame about the cut. Love Bobby going for a high scream of his own during Donna's signature post-jam scream!

First one in a little over a year is a good one!

One of the better ones I've heard actually...tight with great vocals from Phil.

I think Fall '72 is the best era for FOTD -- fast and wired like the studio version!
