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.

Feb. 4, 1978
Milwaukee Auditorium

Dick's Picks 18 version.
