This track and 4 excellent others from this date are on "Pacific Northwest '73-'74: Believe It If You Need It (Live)"
Truckin'

Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

Playin' In The Band
June 16, 1974
Iowa State Fairgrounds
I love that this version (and whole show) is so divisive. I agree with some of what Grendel says (poor Donna probably couldn't hear herself in the monitors) but I like it when they sail off the edge of the map sometimes - they reappear later none the worse for wear.

Hollywood Palladium
Very committed, emotional lyrics from Jerry (in addition to stellar guitar).
