Not sure if it was intentional or a minor stumble, but at the very beginning Billy plays something that sounds like the clicking heels of cowboy boots

Unique bounce to this one...slower than usual for '74, but still neat.

Fun finish to this underrated gem of a show!

Not the very best, but all of the Europe '72 versions deserve to be on here...

One of the best of the tour IMO. Keith plays a phrase throughout that seems to suggest Little Richard's "The Girl Can't Help It," which Jerry then echoes closer to the end of the jam after Keith has stopped playing it...great stuff from an underrated show!

Love the brisk tempo for this one! Jerry's riffing has a real surf rock feel to it...

Yup...one of two shows on the tour that they split into three sets, 4/24 Dusseldorf being the other...

I think this one is very interesting if you're in the right mood to focus on it. Pig's rap in the final two minutes before Caution is one of his best ever!

Unique ending to the solo on this one, resulting from the boys cutting Jerry off prematurely...
