Shocked this wasn't here already...gorgeous version from a legendary show, about two weeks before they recorded the studio version.

For a song with less diversity from one version to the next, this one is better than most, and rare coming so late in the show...

I like the 5/4 Paris version slightly better, but this is one of the best for sure.

Keith is playing a Fender Rhodes electric piano (as heard on "No Quarter," "Riders On The Storm," etc.), not a Hammond B3...

I like this song a lot more at this tempo...it's a beautiful song, but it doesn't need to be pushing 10 minutes at 50 bpm IMO
