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!

Like Veneta's EP, it takes on a different buzz coming out of an epic DS...

This one is a ripper...perhaps not as scorching as 7/18/72, but very hot in its own right.

I'm really loving these '72 versions...they don't drag at all, as it sometimes could in later years.

The jam was giving me slight hints of the '71 "Hard To Handle" jams, actually. Great, unique version...

Celebratory indeed...great (pre-OMSN) capper to one of my favourite '72 shows!
