I think '71-'72 was probably the peak for this song...

Typically great '72 version, falling between a great "Tomorrow Is Forever" and an epic DS

Another excellent '72 version. Seems like this show is one of the most under-the-radar great '72 shows...

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!
