Last from this show to be nominated...wraps up an excellent second set in style.

Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

Last piece of this brilliant show to be submitted. Billy unleashes some wild, tribal bashing to cleanse our palette between DS and Eyes

Reminds me a bit more of the Europe versions than the Fall ones surrounding it somehow...not that they're all that different, I guess.
Morning Dew

Springfield Civic Center

Fantastic version...way underrated IMO. The rubato feel they were able to achieve on songs like this in the one-drummer era disappeared post-hiatus...
Brokedown Palace
Sept. 16, 1972
Boston Music Hall

This is the only time DS and Brokedown were ever played side-by-side, let alone flowing into each other...
Jack Straw
Sept. 10, 1972
Hollywood Palladium

Like Veneta's EP, it takes on a different buzz coming out of an epic DS...
Truckin'
Aug. 12, 1972
Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

This one is a ripper...perhaps not as scorching as 7/18/72, but very hot in its own right.
