These early 70s Jack Straws have so much Charm. Silky smooth rendition full of grace and wonderful joyous interplay. Surprised this isn’t here yet.

“It’s polka time!” Shouts Bobby at the beginning of this one! Honored to submit this one. Absolute rager from an underrated show.

Passionate and poignant. Fantastic Fall 72 version.

Stunning organ parts that take the song to a different level. Feels like I'm going down a lazy river without a care in the world.

Horns!! Let it Grow is already on here but the Whole suite needs love. When the horns come in you can't help but smile. Pure and beautiful.

Can't help but to think that they were singing to Pigpen in this version. Has a very somber tone to it that really seems like a song about mourning an old friend rather than someone who split with their money. Phil with the bass in his voice really makes it for me too! This feels very definitive, a lot of the Europe 72 mojo is still going strong,

The perfect remedy for a blistering start to the second set. They never stop, but they allow themselves to breathe here, to take a minute to bask in the moment. What a show.

The music never stopped. What a segue out of Franklins, a little sloppy but man is this fun. Imagine being in the audience, just when you think they're done, they just keep at it. You can tell the band is tired but they keep going strong. You got to admire the effort here. Plowing through a fast and furious Help>Slip>Frank and then despite how tired they are, they keep the music going, for music's sake The Dead were truly something special. Keith is also mighty on this. Can you tell that I like Keith?

Oh man. Angels envelope me as they take me away to a far off land. A journey through the land beyond. Slipknot is some true wizardry. Jerry does some wonderful riffing right before the drums break in. Coming out of the drums, we are dancin' in the slipknot as we can hear Jerry taking the band through a different place leading to this incredible pocket of space and jazzy and elegant jamming. Right before landing into Franklin's, the band play those famous diminished lines at the speed of light before falling into the main theme. Just wow. Franklins sounds like it could be a 77 version, definitely the synthesis of what's to come. A class performance with some incredible interplay between Jerry and Keith. Another times forgotten space.

This is by far one of my favorite Truckin's of all time. The jam after is really what makes it for me but this Truckin' is nothing to scoff at. 72 is unique for these Truckin's that have this evil sounding wah effect that Keith does before the jams that's so utterly unique to this era. The only other version with a Truckin' inverted Dark Star to my knowledge is 3/24/73 which is a monster all on its own. This, 4/16/72, 10/2/72, 3/24/72, and 8/5/74 has some of the best Truckin' jams of all time. I suggest all of these. What a time to be alive.
