A triumphant, anthemic version that shows another, powerful side to it. Great piano work gives it a nice flavor.

Just transcendentally perfect. The whole set from Cryptical on is monumental '71 headiness.

Playin' In The Band

About here Playin' starts stretching out. Only 7 min long, but there's a lot of charge here: Listen to all of them thinking "let's take this furthur".

A little more love for the early ones? A strong and powerful version that never loses focus. Beautiful.

Bristling hot show opener shows how they meant business. Dec. '71 is special transition time and this one pins you to the wall with energy.

Amazing. Just heard the whole show for the first time. Several greats throughout the show, but this is the kind of dazzling Stephen that got me on the bus and kept me there. They took their vitamins that night!

Great energy. Drives into a cool "Close Encounters" solo Jerry Jam.

Kicks into a raging high-energy epic around 07:45 This is what used to blow me out of my boots at the shows back in the day. Wish I could have been there for this one.

Just infinite. Midway into the jam Jer hits a riff, then settles on it, then brings everyone in on it. Collective massive jamming. Great Jack Straw on this show, too. Sorry for the double posting!
