Solid early version.

Such a strange song - how did they ever come up with these lyrics?

Jerry gets a little extended jam time.

It would have been better if Bob let Jerry jam some more.

Par for the course - it's 1972 and Bob nails it again.

Childhood's End
Oct. 3, 1994
Boston Garden

There's a spot - as usual for this song - where Jerry's guitar work is off. Overall, this is better than some other versions I've listened to. Again, Vince does his best and sounds good.
Childhood's End
July 5, 1995
Riverport Amphitheater

This is brutal. Jerry's guitar work pre-vocals and on the first instrumental break are way off and sound really sour. The harmonies often clash. Vince is playing better than anybody else.
Childhood's End
July 9, 1995
Soldier Field

If you really like Phil's singing, I guess you'll like this. I think it's awful - a set killer.
A Voice From On High
Aug. 5, 1970
Golden Hall - San Diego Community Concourse

Possibly the best out of the 4. If not, surely second best.
A Voice From On High
July 30, 1970
The Matrix

An improvement from the show on 7-11.
