Good version sandwiched between HCS and the big jam suite...

Seems like this show needs more love around here...a few high vote-getters, but the whole thing rocks

This song is awesome in '73, and this one is no exception!

^It sounds to me like they abandoned ship because someone shouted for "something sweet"

^Couldn't have said it better myself, Carrion_Crow! Ego death is an experience you can't possibly explain, but a great "Black Peter" like this sure comes close...

Keith really shines on this one, followed by Phil playing wingman in Pig's stead heading into intermission...

Criminally underrated! That should change now with the box set. I think this is kind of a "Goldilocks" version -- tight, well-sung verses; some spaciness; some dreaminess; some Tiger. A+ in my books...

Transition finds a really unique space...like they stumbled upon a peaceful little meadow along the way and wandered in for a minute :)
