Speedy late 70's precision. Hot relic from a sweet run. (also, trying to add 7.4.89 and keep getting an error message. Version needs recognition)

I have an odd love affair for this song and Euro '72 was its peak. UK a few nights later is far superior, but this one certainly has sufficient gusto

Has some nice depth for a compact version. Not to mention the absolutely stunning UJB>P>UJB show opener call.

Beautiful version and a jaw dropping way to open a show! I love the introduction, ushering in the next 15 years of the Dead
