Kind of shocked so many songs from this show hadn't been nominated...top-notch '72 IMO, and this China>Rider is no exception...

Big fan of the '72 "Deal"'s...they 'go down' in a hurry.

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!
