Phil is high in the mix. One of the best '71 versions, I believe.

Goodness, Jerry! Save the voice a bit -- you have a whole show to do here.

I usually like Phil up in the mix, but here Jerry is somewhat in the background for a while, and it gets a bit erratic volume-wise in the middle, which is a shame, because this one rips. It sounds pretty good around the 6:30 mark, though. Maybe they fixed things for DaP 51?

It doesn't get high marks for the vocals, but it's not bad.

Hard to believe there are over a hundred versions with more votes. That may change since this show has gotten an official release.

Sound quality must have attracted DL's attention, as this show is available on Dave's Picks 51.
