They could hardly screw up the "hard" songs in Fall '72, much less EP

I think '71-'72 was probably the peak for this song...

Typically great '72 version, falling between a great "Tomorrow Is Forever" and an epic DS

Nice, brief one towards the end of a great DS

Reminds me a bit more of the Europe versions than the Fall ones surrounding it somehow...not that they're all that different, I guess.

Fantastic version...way underrated IMO. The rubato feel they were able to achieve on songs like this in the one-drummer era disappeared post-hiatus...
Brokedown Palace

Boston Music Hall

This is the only time DS and Brokedown were ever played side-by-side, let alone flowing into each other...

Hollywood Palladium

Like Veneta's EP, it takes on a different buzz coming out of an epic DS...

This one is a ripper...perhaps not as scorching as 7/18/72, but very hot in its own right.
