Truckin'

Oklahoma City Music Hall

Just when it seems like they've decided on O1 as the jam vehicle of choice, they suddenly switch to a great Truckin'.

Nice extended jam on this one, with Pig driving the band to new heights.

Turn On Your Love Light

Academy of Music

Pig takes the wheel on a wild ride through the funk dimension. "I know you got it hid away someplace, 'cuz I've been there before."

Uncle John's Band

Sugar Magnolia->Caution->Uncle John's Band is a very cool sequence, kind of a preview of the Europe 72 jams.

Chinatown Shuffle
Jan. 2, 1972
Winterland Arena

One of the earliest Shuffles, and it's a good one. Pig sings some lyrics differently, and I dig the organ/piano combo.

Dark Star
July 18, 1972
Rossevelt Stadium

Jerry even throws in some good old '69 licks at the end. Great stuff.
Truckin'
July 18, 1972
Rossevelt Stadium

Truckin'->Dark Star is killer!
Playin' In The Band
July 18, 1972
Rossevelt Stadium

Really nice version, probably the best from July '72.
Not Fade Away
July 16, 1972
Dillon Stadium

Brother Berry Oakley plays bass on this one, as well as on the subsequent GDTRFB->Bo Diddley jam. He and Dickey tear it up!
Jack Straw
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

There are plenty of great Jack Straws from the Euro '72 tour, but this is the crucial one.
