I have definitetly been know to FFWD through Space on playback, but this one is just beautiful. Starts out very spaced out, then gets blissful.

This one just keeps building, and building, until MASSIVE PEAK. All kinds of tension/release

Been a while since i have spun this one - it shoots straight into the cosmos. Very spacey

Great way to start an epic two-night run in the mothership

Definitely worth listening to for the rhythmic oddity. I can't tell whether it was purposeful or just out of sync (I felt like the former, but not certain?). Worth it for something different, if nothing else

Very choice. I felt like this cracked my head open, then patiently melded it back together on a concerted listen.

Absolutely cracks with energy. The ramp up is a powerhouse. So strange, almost a year gap until this version, then not played again until Nov '79. They made this one count at least!

Tizzy of frantic jamming, then boils down into a bluesy goo > flawless transition to Death Don't Have
