Underrated song, should have never been shelved. This is a good one,.

Fillmore West

This is so good, it should get more credit. It really struck me how the Cryptical Reprise was more jammed out and exploratory than the TOO itself.

Love the pedal steel, and agree with the comments on Phil's backing vocals, they are real nice here.

Just an amazing version, hits a big peak with Jerry and Phil really taking the lead.
