Shocked that I get to submit this a day after the 50th anniversary! Incredible version with a very melodic, well-structured solo and a great SSDD!

Really starting to sound like '73, as is the case on a few other tunes this evening as well. Great version.

Heaps of fun indeed. Bobby must have been elated to have written such a good cowboy song...

Great start to the solo from Jerry, but then he kind of disappears for a bit. That's nitpicking, though...still a very nice version.

Shame about the slight cut and the lyrical flub...great version otherwise. This might be my favourite show of December, which seems to an underrated/forgotten month...

Century II Convention Hall

I decided I'd listen to this show on my drive today. Was going to check something on my phone before I pulled out of the driveway, but when my phone connected to the Bluetooth, it started playing right away -- LOUD. I thought "I guess I'm leaving NOW!" Charged up PL here...
