Jerry and Phil are off the charts during a really unique jam in the last half of this epic DS

EPIC VERSION!!! Primal attack reminiscent of '69-'70 harldy lets up until the 1st verse 13 mins. in...the thematic jam at the end is trancendent!!!!

The insane energy does not let up once for the whole 20 mins, except for a cool MLB-ish jam that comes after the 2nd verses....weird stuff

BEST of '73!! after the Phil solo Keith launches them into one of the craziest jams ever. First time I heard this I fell out of my seat!

Sorry this is hands down better than Veneta in my book! My all-time favorite Dark Star - the most utterly sublime MLB jam ever!!
