Dallas Memorial Auditorium

Wow, seemingly a very overlooked gem. Tension and release, weaving effortlessly from mellow jam segments to soaring peaks, without screechy breakdown

You Win Again
April 26, 1972
Jahrhunderthalle

Moseying version. Jerry lays down buttery licks and Keith rides some nice fills. Zippidy doo dah tuning jam to follow

Saint of Circumstance
Dec. 30, 1991
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Great Saint, though the goods are in the MLB > Dear Prudence jam that follows. I can only imagine the level of blue balls in the house for that tease

I always liked this version. The boys gel together nicely for a peaky crescendo

Freight train of energy

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
Nov. 15, 1972
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
Bird Song
Sept. 30, 1972
American University

This one is magnificent - great peaks and valleys
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
Sept. 19, 1990
Madison Square Garden

Some very nice contributions from Hornsby in this Slipknot!
