Flows nicely into everyone's favorite, "I Will Take You Home" -- so popular it's not even listed as an option because it would crash the server

Coming out of Scarlet Begonias, has a bit more of a '76 vibe than most of 77-78

Sing Me Back Home
May 26, 1972
Strand Lyceum

Don't know this for sure, but extra vocals were added to the Europe '72 release in the studio once they got back to the states. I don't think it's a matter of them removing her vocals so much as not including the sweetened tracks in order to present a more authentic live mix.
Dupree's Diamond Blues
Feb. 4, 1978
Milwaukee Auditorium

Dick's Picks 18 version.
El Paso
June 18, 1974
Freedom Hall

The El Paso Playin' sandwich is actually 11/21/73, which was release as one of the later volumes of the Road Trips series.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
June 16, 1974
Iowa State Fairgrounds

Road Trips 2.3 version.
