This version is head and shoulders above the other versions I've heard. The ending jam is outrageous.

What a cool version. The jam at 10:00 is one of the more exploratory ones I've heard. Way to nail it first time out boys!

First song they played in 77', the precision in this version is unbelievable. Maybe the first and best??

The only complete version with Alhambra which is a masterpiece, why they only played it once baffles me????
