I've yet to hear a '72 version that doesn't kick at least some degree of ass, and this is no exception...

Billy is absolutely nuts during the solo!

Reminds me a bit more of the Europe versions than the Fall ones surrounding it somehow...not that they're all that different, I guess.

Fantastic version...way underrated IMO. The rubato feel they were able to achieve on songs like this in the one-drummer era disappeared post-hiatus...

This is the only time DS and Brokedown were ever played side-by-side, let alone flowing into each other...

Like Veneta's EP, it takes on a different buzz coming out of an epic DS...
