Strong finish to a great first set at a strangely overlooked show...

Not to be that guy, but every '72 version ought to be here...

I favour the E72 versions for the warmth of Pig's organ, with 5/4 Paris being my all-time fav, but this one is great for sure.

Maybe not the very best, but better than most! In the upper-echelon, for sure...

Beautiful version that captures the dreamy vibe of the studio version well...

Really starting to sound like '73, as is the case on a few other tunes this evening as well. Great version.
