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.

Playin' In The Band
Sept. 28, 1972
Stanley Theatre

The best of the September '72 Playins IMO. Great work from every band member, and a long, interesting jam full of peaks and valleys. I especially love the way Jerry unleashes a final burst of energy to carry the jam back home.

They hit the perfect swing and dynamic shifts on this one.
Bird Song

9/17 was my favorite from September, but I think I like this one even better.
El Paso

Stanley Theatre

This is my favorite September '72 version. Vocals are a little low, but Phil is up front and riffing hard.

Palace Theater

I really like the solo on this one- reminds me of the Allmans.
