Hits a great groove early on, with some cool interplay before the first verse.

If you like some of Jerry's guitar effects from early versions of "Dark Star," give this a listen! Short but sweet.

Cool transition from "Space," and the organ in the intro is hot. Leads into a smoking "Watchtower"

Standout solo section with entire band playing interesting lines. Romping, stomping fun. Also not to be missed are some funny Bobby remarks re Phil breaking string (something about a man in a sharp suit smoking a cigar, with wire cutters). Billy AND Mickey’s birthday today (Parish's real birthday) before a surprisingly banging version of “Funiculi Funicula.”

Worth a vote for that super sick peak in the > alone. Everything else is just nasty. Nice one.
