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.

Keith is very creative on this one. Great capper to an all-time great show!

Really wired version from all parties here amidst one of the best second sets (and shows) ever!

The harmonies are fantastic on this one. Not a song I'm usually a huge fan of, but I love this one!

Stunningly gorgeous. I don't think I've heard wider dynamic contrasts on any other version, nor do I think I've heard them so smoothly executed on any other...

So dreamy and smooth -- like this whole show. They don't all have to be Tiger...nice to have ones for many different moods.
