'Hip Shake' was among several other Exile tracks rehearsed in Rotterdam and (mid-tour in preparation for filming) Dallas, but only those mentioned above made it to the stage. The aforementioned performance of 'Sweet Black Angel' in Fort Worth, Texas later in the tour (June 24) was presumably to celebrate Angela Davis' (about whom it was written) release from prison on June 4th.

1972 U.S. Tour
There were several gems attempted on stage once in some cases, twice or three times in others, then dropped. These include 'Ventilator Blues', 'Torn and Frayed' (both once each in Vancouver on the first night of June 3rd) and 'Loving Cup', which was kept in the set list for the next few dates on the west coast. Surprisingly they played 'Honky Tonk Women' only once on the tour as an encore in L.A.. Chuck Berry's 'Don't Lie to Me', 'Dead Flowers' and 'Sweet Black Angel' were attempted once each (and never again on the tour) for the filming of Ladies and Gentlemen The Rolling Stones' in Fort Worth (click image below to hear 'Sweet Black Angel' live):
