Super-fast and super-funky rendition, from one of the best 1972 shows.

Hard rocking version from a tight 2nd set.

Big River

Hofheinz Pavilion

A rip-roaring rendition, with Jerry ripping licks, Keith banging keys, and Billy machine-gunning the backbeat.

The Other One

Oklahoma City Music Hall

Nice jazziness coming out of Truckin'. Phil hints at a few solo themes he would develop later on, and Jerry shreds before the verse reprise.

Bird Song
Oct. 2, 1972
Springfield Civic Center

Yeah, this is a top 1972 Bird Song, and should be a lot higher. Nice sound, sweet jams.
Big River
Oct. 9, 1972
Winterland Arena

Excellent '72 version! Sounds great, and I love the interplay between Jerry, Bobby and Keith.
Playin' In The Band
Oct. 17, 1972
Fox Theatre

Absolutely SICK version. Doesn't quite reach the peaks of other similar vintages, but still delivers plenty of smooth, effervescent 1972 goodness.
Looks Like Rain
April 8, 1972
Wembley Empire Pool

Europe '72 is full of incredible performances, and this LLR has to be one of the finest overall. Just amazing stuff.
Truckin'
Oct. 9, 1972
Winterland Arena

I like the duet Phil and Billy get into at the end of the Truckin' jam.
