Here is this night's setlist.

Heroes and Villains
Do It Again
Cottonfields
 Help Me Rhonda
Wouldn't It Be Nice
Your Song
Student Demonstration Time
Good Vibrations
California Girls
I Get Around
It's About Time

A high-energy performance on the closing night of the Fillmore East. Carl, Mike, Al, and Bruce are present. This is one of the best shows from the 1971 tour that's out there. The perfect mix of old and current stuff, with some excellent jamming on Help Me Rhonda. Bruce's version of Your Song is blissful. Dennis is missed, however.

The recording itself is from a soundboard, albeit a poorly mixed one (Carl and Mike are sometimes hard to hear, Al and Bruce are the most prominent).

HORRIBLE sound on that show. In fact, this show itself is a great argument for Audience recordings over soundboards.
