Pretty good climax on this one, which is the key to the song IMO. All-around solid version, surprised it's not on here yet.

They sound a bit bored with it to my ears until Phil kicks them into gear around the 4:00 mark. Probably smart that they gave it a break after '71...

More relaxed pace than usual, which allows Bob to give a nice, thoughtful vocal performance.

This one is groovy as hell! Has me bouncing around in my seat every which way (and it's not just the couple cups of coffee I've had)!

Was "Promised Land" not the opener? I see it listed in all setlists, yet missing from the board...strange. Very nice "Sugaree" regardless!
