Excellent version highlighted by a very jittery Billy with lots of ghost notes on the snare! Slightly botched ending, but otherwise great...

Billy really steals the show on this one...tosses in a variety of grooves, all to great success.

Great, tight show opener kicking off the '72 run on the new box! Has a bit of that 'Cornell inertia,' as I like to call it...

Great version in the right part of the country for it! Keith teases the "Marines' Hymn" before they start...oorah! Man, I love '72...

They ride the crests of the wave in perfect unison as in all of the best versions of it. Sounds like they were excited about and proud of this new 'toy' of theirs...

Bobby's bee story afterwards LOL! Can't tell if the groaning "oh, Bob" afterward is someone in the band or the crowd...fitting either way!

Some really neat playing with Billy on the toms off and on throughout
