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

Less than half the length of the other three on this run, but still great!

They really accelerate out of the Willam Tell bridge on this one!

Jerry's vocal delivery is really superb on this one.

Takes on a taunting tone at this tempo...could freak you out in a certain state.
