Very beautiful, almost sparse playing on this one. It's different than most from '74 but it works.

Short but high octane version with Billy and Jerry crushing it...the jam rises to a furious climax!

Unusual version that starts out very quiet and minimalistic, alternating throughout from hot to cold. Jerry and Billy are really tearing it up!

Killer Nobody's jam in which Jerry apparently breaks a string, but Keith steps up very nicely. Some subtle Other One teases towards the end of one.

Probably the best version of the song IMO. Phil drops some serious thunder!

One of my favorites. A soaring version that caps off one of the best jam sequences of the year.

Really HOT Truckin>Other One jam from an otherwise sub par show. Worth it to hear this one awesome segment though.

Energetic as usual for '74. The "Wood Green" jam out of this one makes it really interesting.

Wild and hairy blues-rock jamming out of this one, with Jerry bending the hell out of the strings...one of the best Truckin jams ever, should be ranked higher!
