As of this moment my favorite version. Many great versions in '72-'74...time to start digging...funny Phil banter after as well

Auditorium Theatre

The '76 Cassidys are laid back for sure, but this one and the entire show lope like no other, and in the best possible way. Epic PeggyO, Mission, Jed, epic top-to-bottom

Your analysis may have merit...all I can say is that I love listening to this version...maybe it's the moodiness, or the Phil-heaviness, but whatever it is, it is awesome...there may be better versions, but this one is pretty great to my ears

...Listen to this and just TRY not to grin from ear to ear...especially the banter before it
