hard to believe this big beast hasn't been tagged yet: Experimental, interesting, and at 23min, a nice long ride.

Only the 2nd one they played after it went into circulation, and it conveys all the emotion and poetry of this wonderful song. Sing something Phil!

For a song notoriously difficult to pull off live, this one is just beautiful. Succinct, harmonious, deliberate: All good, in spite of AUD quality.

Great transition into Rider here. Really strong '72 ensemble playing. Sound quality is only about a B though.

Solid heady version with a great build-up. Sound is only B quality though.

Whole 2nd set qualifies for one of the top Phil Zone Jam Sets of the era. WRS/LIG>Spanish>Eyes>China Doll. Goddamn, it's good.

Pauley Pavilion - University of California
Date, plate, slate, Koweit: Doesn't matter to me, 'cause this show tears the roof off the sucker. May be one of my top 10 shows of all time. Goddamn, it's good.

Shreddingly fast guitar work. Jerry's voice sounds young and fresh. Great version, great second set, great show.

Berkeley Community Theatre
Something supremely special with Playing' after Europe '72. Everyone loves Veneta, but don't overlook these peaks from the same week. Always seemed like they pulled it all out just a little bit furthur for the Berkeley crowd.
