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

Maybe not the very best, but better than most! In the upper-echelon, for sure...

Really starting to sound like '73, as is the case on a few other tunes this evening as well. Great version.

Heaps of fun indeed. Bobby must have been elated to have written such a good cowboy song...
