Shocked that I get to submit this a day after the 50th anniversary! Incredible version with a very melodic, well-structured solo and a great SSDD!

Am I the only one who finds '73 PITB's slightly underwhelming compared to their Fall '72 counterparts? Don't get me wrong, they're well-played and great to vibe to, but they don't seem to be as complex for the most part...
