Expansive and spacious with brilliant flashes. Has a few bad AUD patches in need of a fix but well worth the ride.

Short and sweet. Not lickety-split quick pickin' à la 1970-71 and certainly not a slow-as-cold-molasses 80's style either, but nice and right. A gem.

Unique version. Great vocals with Jerry singing backup. Classic '72 sound.

Back from when this wasn't just a toss-off after Drums/Space. High voltage Pig.

Not mellow. Not spaced-out sweetness, but a burning hot re-entry after a rocketship TOO.

Wonderful theme and variation in that build up.

One of the most under-rated songs on their Great Jam Vehicles list. Seems like they were always innovating with it. I love how they start tweaking the tempo several times - a sure sign they were just itching to take things furthur out with it.

Love the rare acoustic MAMUs.

The Feedback after is perfectly symphonic. I'm never sure where to vote for Feedback, as it doesn't really fit in "Space" and it was certainly it's own section after different jams in '68-'71. Ideas?
