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 version in the right part of the country for it! Keith teases the "Marines' Hymn" before they start...oorah! Man, I love '72...

Very strong version. Phil is especially "on" during China Cat. Interesting, subdued final minute or so of the transition...

A delicate beauty to cap an incredible four-show run.
