The last of a whopping 73 plays in 1972, and a nice one to finish with...

Good start to a very overlooked show. This was their most common opener in '72, kicking off 32 shows, this being the last of them (opens S2 on NYE).

Maybe not the very best, but better than most! In the upper-echelon, for sure...

Really starting to sound like '73, as is the case on a few other tunes this evening as well. Great version.

Heaps of fun indeed. Bobby must have been elated to have written such a good cowboy song...
