1973-74: This song was not performed as such. Instead, during Frank's "Dupree's Paradise" guitar solo, the opening bass riff to "Carolina" was used as the solo vamp. Upon completion of the solo, the band would then segue back into the closing theme of "Dupree's Paradise".
1975: This song is so painful on this tour. To begin with, for all performances until at least Austin (and I suspect that that version is edited), the chorus's contain the same lines as in the officially released version, only each line is sung twice, instead of only once. Secondly, the tempo is MUCH slower, with the song seeming to just drag on and on. And finally, to me at least, Brock's singing always seems just way off. The one high point is Frank's solo, which seems to come about four hours into the song.
1975-76: Essentially performed as on "Bongo Fury", allowing for obvious differences in instrumentation, and with the standard deviation coming in Frank's solo. On at least one occasion (10/14), the guitar solo section gets a little weird, veering off into some random improvisation, before returning to the closing chorus. But for the majority of the performances, we get the standard Frank solo only.
1982: A special treat that rear its head (stomped its feet?) only once this time out. Essentially played as on YCDTOSA Volume IV, accounting for obvious differences in instrumentation, and with the standard deviation coming in Frank's solo.
1984: Essentially played as on YCDTOSA Volume IV, with the standard deviation coming in Frank's solo.
