In most ways typical of era but I wanted to note it for how fine Donna's voice is throughout this one.

Nice pacing with good energy. Playing is good with exception of Bobby's slide solo, which falls into that period of out of tune passion.

This is a really smoking version. The playing is great with high intensity and energy.

Nice transition from the drums. Good energy and firm attitude towards the song. Crowd enjoying it very much. Nice fading at the end.

Still have never heard one better. Beautiful chaos. Perfect balance between chaos and order.

Nicely played, but my version fades out before the song is fully completed.

this is all about the energy and excitement of the start of E72. This shows tinge of excess from said excitement, but it's all worth overlooking for the sheer joy of the moment.
