A bit quirky and funky but a great mid-section jam. Jerry delivers. Give it some love and votes!

Orgasmic peaks. Needs more votes! Jerry, Bobby & Brent are smokin'!

Donna puts in a really strong and beautifull performance on top of Jerry's climatic ending delivery

Surprised this hasn't made the list. Jerry rocks it out at the end of this early version!

Jerry's eager to get the climatic jamming underway, doesn't really give Bobby's final lyrics a chance, but that's a good thing!

Excellent shit. Around 11:30 you even get a hint of Rush's Cygnus X-1 action.

I love the piano at the beginning, wish they would have added a few more bars before kicking in to the song. The Foolish Heart preceding SoC is pretty good too.

Difficult to compare '77 and '78 EP because it wasn't until '78 that the mid-section jam really exploded and became a location of tremendous peaking for the song.

Jerry's really putting his heart into these vocals. Ooh, Ooh, Ooh run and see!

This should be in the top five versions, at least. Beautiful, spacey, heady jam with intense build up and climax. Video is on youtube.
