An overlooked version because of the famous movie version from the 19th October, but good and on the money.

They really groove on the outro vocals-no shrieking,just driving on and on. Not at the top but a VG 78 version

This was the end of the show where the boys (excepting Pigpen) were so smashed on large quantities of acid that they barely could play(and indeed had to take a couple of hours lie down!) They bravely make a fairly good job of it, so kudos to the guys. It's actually pretty good for a '69 Cosmic .
