I actually dig Hornsby's flare on this. Jerry nails a sweet solo at the end too. Very heartfelt

Full head of steam. Good Phil work on a song that is typically a Jerry shredfest highlight reel (this is still a Jerry shredfest highlight reel)

Hofheinz Pavilion

My favorite of the early 70s. Long, airy, flowing, and beautiful. A true highlight of the Houston '72 release. Digs deep with soul

As mentioned, super bumping Phil, but he does some nimble, more subtle moves early in the track that are choice too. Jerry contributes the this being a great one

This jam cranks. Jerry and the drummers pulling together a nice wind up to the peak.
