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, tight show opener kicking off the '72 run on the new box! Has a bit of that 'Cornell inertia,' as I like to call it...

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

^Yeah, it is a strong Keith version. Whole-heartedly agree that it shouldn't be #1 though -- that honour belongs to 5/17/77 Tuscaloosa IMO.

This is sometimes a "meh" song for me (although it's been growing on me recently), but this version wowed me today.

Great version and a great little solo from Keith!

Brisk, crisp and beautiful...like a sunset drive through the Nebraska cornfields it was played in.

Very well- and carefully-sung by Bobby. Nice!
