Excellent vocal breakdown at the end where Bobby goes into a falsetto and brings it all back to a crescendo. (video link in comments)

Smoking eyes...not too speedy...
He's Gone
Dec. 12, 1980

John Lennon had died four days earlier so you know that he was on their minds when playing this killer He's Gone that is part of a classic 2nd set and whole show...
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Dec. 12, 1980
Swing Auditorium

Holy Hammer of the Gods Batman!!! This China>Rider is so epic but it just flows right into a MONSTER Estimated, a tight He's Gone and a KILLER Eyes, all with no pauses, a jam sequence...Amazing 1980 show!
Playin' In The Band
May 10, 1972
Concertgebouw

The words "not as" shouldn't be used to describe this incredible PITB in any capacity because it's so incredibly different from other Europe 72 PITB's in the feel and mood. This is a prime example of their genius. The fact that as cgarces stated, they could go from a 'tiger' version like say 4/26 Hundred Year Hall, to this dream like vacation is just amazing...
Let It Grow
Sept. 11, 1982
West Palm Beach Auditorium

This LIG is like being whipped with a Wiffle ball bat while being licked on the face by a dozen puppies...
