How is this version not listed? Jerry is just cooking...late '73 style! The whole band during this whole show is just at their absolute peak!!

Love the '73 version of this song!...not sure why he thought it was a good idea to slooow this tune down...oh well...this one will get you off the couch!

Intro starts out pretty standard...and then comes that '73 stinging version of Jerry! The first minute before the first verse is the Jerry I could listen to over and over...

This soundboard version is terribly mixed...Healy! I remember getting a handful of FOB tapes back in the day...and this version...on those tapes is incredible!

You can have all the other HCS's...this one is what '73 is all about...and for me is the quintessential version! Compact, tight, amazing...the segue into China Cat is flawless. Every year when I go skiing, while on the mountain coming down...this one provides the musical power needed to conquer the hill!

Every now and then you hear a song you've heard a thousand times before...and then a version where Jerry starts firing-off clean, bright, notes throughout!
