Not the very best of the year, but still darn good...

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

Perhaps not surprisingly, you can really hear the '73 sound starting to emerge here (and elsewhere in the show)...

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).

This one gets quite out there, yet remains smooth and melodic...A+ from me. Shame about the cut. Love Bobby going for a high scream of his own during Donna's signature post-jam scream!

First one in a little over a year is a good one!

One of the better ones I've heard actually...tight with great vocals from Phil.

I think Fall '72 is the best era for FOTD -- fast and wired like the studio version!

Really smooth, shimmery solo from Jerry. Love how Billy accents Bob's count-in to SSDD on the toms...
