The Palladium

I typically find the post '72 versions of this song to be a bit of filler, but this one has some nice accents from Keith and some ramp-up ending chaw

Relatively short, given later incarnations, but this one has wonderful energy behind it, deliberate playing, and a delicate finish

The Other One
Nov. 17, 1972
Century II Convention Hall

Blows the goddamn doors down. And I agree, this new Dave's release showcases Keith putting on an 88 key clinic
Playin' In The Band

Oklahoma City Music Hall

Multi-thematic masterpiece. Deep exploration. This is IT
He's Gone
Nov. 17, 1972
Century II Convention Hall

Keith steals this show and this version of He's Gone. His descending fills in the end jam are hypnotic. Stellar version

American University

This one is magnificent - great peaks and valleys
