Legit. As per usual, Keith and Jerry own this song...

Overshadowed by the monster second set Playin', this deserves more attention. Tight playing, tons 'o energy, and Phil is massive and funky. Check it!!

Garica's solos are inventive and unique...this version is so tight yet the jams seem to stretch forever!

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!
