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

Beat it on Down The Line

Kongressaal, Deutsches Museum

Is it just me, or is Phil more noticeable in this one?
Sitting on Top of the World

Glad they overruled Phil to launch into this one instead of Greatest Story, which he was noodling with coming out of the intermission...
Good Lovin'

Kongressaal, Deutsches Museum

Compact little guy compared to some others on the tour, but very good. Great build-up and explosion back into the verse.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Very nice one indeed. This whole show is overlooked! I think it's the best of the three between Rotterdam and the Lyceum run by a significant margin, which isn't to say that Lille and Luxembourg aren't also very good...

A tad slower than the other E72 versions, which lends it a nice, mellow vibe. Pig fills this one out nicely.
