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...

Swaggering version with the more careful tempos of this first set...

One of the slowest versions I've heard, but not in a bad way...I love listening to this first set with my morning coffee.

Last time it was used as an opener until 2/17/79 Oakland! Great start to my second-favourite show of the tour...

Fitting capper to what is, IMO, a Top 10 show of their career...
