Not really my song, but this is a nice version. Jerry rips a tight little solo at the end

Playin' In The Band

Palace Theater

This one really moves along. Not a lull in sight. I have been all over Keith's manbag recently and this version is no different. Guy shines in his fills. Playin's slayed in fall '72 and this one is a definitely on par
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 17, 1972
Tivolis Koncertsal

Merriam webster defines "heady" as Keith's fills in this China > Rider transition. Guy is an unsung hero. F'n tasty China jam here

Boogie down shit

Jahrhunderthalle

It has been a very long time since I have spun this show. Good to see that this O1 can still birth a cosmic brain baby after all of this time. Myriad stylistic shifts, from jam segment to jam segment. There is a several minute jam portion in the middle that is straight nasty
Eyes Of The World

Knickerbocker Arena

To double down on my comments for this version, this one is fucking fire! Definitely does not get the dap it deserves. Set the table for the Branford sit in, but stands wholeheartedly on its own as a blissful, intricate, driving masterpiece.
