Strand Lyceum

A crisp and powerful rendition, as good as any from Europe '72.

This one has a great transition jam into TOO. Hopefully a better sounding recording emerges someday.

This one's got more pep than a lot of '72 versions.

Great summer '72 version. Right up there with Veneta.

Chock full of heady summer '72 goodness. It's not quite 04/08, but tasty nonetheless.

Playin' In The Band

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.

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

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.
