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

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

Really smooth, shimmery solo from Jerry. Love how Billy accents Bob's count-in to SSDD on the toms...

Very nice...feels like you're floating in the abyss. Billy has a real tasty fill taking them out of the bridge.

Keith and Phil really propel this one forward...one of the most energetic versions I've heard.

Phil's high harmony parts sound great here!
