The last of a whopping 73 plays in 1972, and a nice one to finish with...

Perhaps not surprisingly, you can really hear the '73 sound starting to emerge here (and elsewhere in the show)...

Good start to a very overlooked show. This was their most common opener in '72, kicking off 32 shows, this being the last of them (opens S2 on NYE).

Good version sandwiched between HCS and the big jam suite...

Great, spiralling slo-motion groove to this one. This show is climbing my ranks very quickly!
Brown Eyed Women

Music Hall

One of the best they'd played to this point, I'd say...
The Race Is On

Music Hall

I think this could be my new favourite. I dare say a "perfect" version...
Beat it on Down The Line

Keith's solo is fantastic here!

This one is dreamy indeed. Was listening last night as I watched the season's first snowfall out my window and it was magical. Billy is fantastic here.
