Awesome near 7 minute Playin that starts to go out there as it would much more in a few months. Really interesting period for the band imo

This feels like the longest they ever took to get into the Feelin Groovy jam but such a standout version IMO. A+ China > Rider

This song was played like it was meant to be acoustic. I love the electric versions but this just hits differently
