Super loose in the joints and fun. They seem to be searching for the '71 sound throughout the run here but I like this one.

High powered and super charged. The last third of the first set is a real killer.

Not the best show, but the best Rat of this run. 4th ever, but the first one to stretch out and become its full self.

Want to be present at its birth? The infant Bacchus emerges. I love this song. This is the 1st time they nail it.

Passes through many phases, always exploring new riffs and hinting at further jams without ever losing its essential feeling and sound. Great stuff.

A real surprise and treat after the finger blistering Dancin'. Right now becomes my favorite ever.
Dancin' in the Streets

Swing Auditorium

In as close to a flawless show as this one, the Dancin' really stands out for its incredibly shredding good time vibe.

Woke up with Jack Straw in my mind, came here for this and BANG! Absolutely ripping version. Great stuff.

Faster than others from the era, but never rushed: Finds a really nice pocket and grooves there. High octane indeed.

Has it all. Nice to get into this whole show, not just the immortal PITB.
