I've yet to hear a '72 version that doesn't kick at least some degree of ass, and this is no exception...

Bickershaw Festival

Fantastic 15-min pre-verse...on pace to be one of the best before it gives way to Drums and TOO after just 19:50
Good Lovin'
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

One of the most sophisticated versions ever...somehow jazzy and out there, yet still totally Good Lovin'
Playin' In The Band
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

One of the most gracefully intense jams I've heard...criminally underrated.
Dark Hollow
Feb. 14, 1970
Fillmore East

There are 20 votes for the night before that actually belong to this one, as it wasn't played on the 13th...
Mister Charlie
April 24, 1972
Rheinhalle

There's a confident saunter to this one...
