Shorter than later incarnations, this one is a full throttle cosmic adventure condenced neatly into an 11min package

The meat and this one is hearty. Whole segment deserves more dap

Notable for not only just the segues both in and out of these UJBs, but flowing jamming throughout the song segments themselves

Genuinely surprised to see how low this is rated. Aside from a rather comical false start, this leads off a major jam sandwich for the ages. This Playin' in particular is gooey, flowing, creative, and melodic. Just my kind of jamming for the song. Flows effortlessly into subsequent segues. Haven't respun in ages and this segment holds up perfectly, on new vinyl release no less!

I had a serious moment with this one last night... A complete emotional powerhouse. This version is everything
