Sublime. Full heady steam engine coming down the track, check out this deep sounding monster, mellow and contained and nailed

Great cover of an awesome weavers song. The song works well in the encore slot. Really fun listening to it, Jerry singing this song is a real trip!

A fairly short version, but don't let the time fool you, this version is as intense as they come. Its to wonder how they could make this up on the fly

This is on fire... Trippy and dark show, really good stuff.

This might just be the best ever... Really, this is sick. 1972 is just jam packed with heady versions and this is easily deserving a top ten or maybe top five consideration.
