Captures all that's great about this song. Uplifting, joyful, smile-inducing. Can't believe this one's not here yet.

Supreme version: Fast, precise and galloping. Great harmonies with Jer singing backup.

Propulsive and moody. Melodic developments developed over 20 minutes of energetic jamming. Billy and Phil are driving throughout.

Expansive, exploritory, and spaced out in places, a nice ride and another great from Spring '73.

Hey Cucamonga007! Dju know that there's a video of this show? Hell yeah, baby, you can find it on Youtube, and while not the complete show, it's pretty damned cool. Yeah, Europe '71, right on!

Is this true? Can anyone confirm? He was definitely at the show, and the only thing I'm going on is my ears, that there's a third guitar solo, different tone, and a badassed jam that needs to be heard. Anyone?

Very fine good old GD here. Fans of '70 need to hear this one if they haven't already. The piano is a bit of a mistery.

Some sources say Pigpen. Sweet version in any case.

Gets better with every single listen. The outro jam is so special. That isn't a MLB, but like some beautiful next-level of spontaneous composition that only guys who can read each others' musicminds can reach after years of doing it. Second comment on this one, but thanks for bringing it back up on the radar. Just wonderful.
