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

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."

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

Chinatown Shuffle

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.

Bird Song

Springfield Civic Center

Yeah, this is a top 1972 Bird Song, and should be a lot higher. Nice sound, sweet jams.

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

Wembley Empire Pool

Europe '72 is full of incredible performances, and this LLR has to be one of the finest overall. Just amazing stuff.

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