Soulful and heartfelt. Version is marred by nasty cut, but is still one of the best ever.

After repeated listenings this Dark Star has started to sound masterful. Mind-blowing interplay between Keith, Jerry, and Phil, advanced exploration

Super emotional solo, and intense powerful leads, make this my favorite pre 76' Deal

Each piece is played to masterful heights. Pretty damn good version for 84' coasts into a rocking jack straw

Tight and upbeat, energetic soloing, but at the same time relaxed and controlled.

Fall 79' was damn good, This version keeps with the consistency of the month. Executed with soulful driving energy.

Hot as can be, this song might be harder to jam on then others, but nevertheless the quick jams are energetic, and this one certainly does not disappoint.
