This is one of those songs that brent just made better and this version is exhibit A of that theory

Hot and bouncy with a unique transition -- played superbly like the rest of the show. Love fall 72 and I agree with the above reviewer who says top 3 show of 72 (hell it may even be top 2).

Yeah, this is pretty much just perfect. Perfect pace, groove, vocals. Not a huge fan of how much they slowed down the tune in 73 and for a while after. This, to me, is the definitive version. I do like what brent brought to the tune starting in 79.
