Just perfect. This and the one from two nights before are played so well, this should've been the studio version. Love '76!!!

vocals in this one are stellar! and the outro jam is oohhhhhh so sweet. I'm new to fall '72 and this show is better than a lot of Europe thus far imo...

highlight of the show for sure, flute/horns sound perfect imo

The horns definitely made the Truckin...interesting to say the least, and while nowhere close to the Nassau '90 Eyes, this one has some great moments and awesome soloing by the Dead and Fierro. Well worth the listen I'd say

The buildup to the Feelin Groovy jam is just so GD perfect! One of the best versions ever imo. Someone called this one pretty and that's a great way to describe it. Such a fantastic show (both early and late!)
