One of the only during '73-'74 without the Feelin' Groovy jam. Really tight, groovy and bouncy.

^ What he said. Some of the best Eyes soloing around...a top version of '73 without a doubt!

Definitly agree! The China>Rider, Playing, Here Comes Sunshine, and the whole 2nd set from He's Gone thru Morning Dew are superb.

This version is speedy, jazzy, and very tasty. Not quite the legend of 5/26 but definitely one of the best of '73.

the "Orange Tango" jam has a really cool middle-eastern(?) type flavor and definitely makes this version for me.
