I usually don't care about this song, but this is a superior take. Highlights are the ripping solo and agreeable vocals throughout.

The reason we all love 1970 and the two set acoustic/electric format. Don't miss the NRPS set from this night either!

Killer stuff. Someone recommended me the matrix of this (https://archive.org/details/gd1978-07-08.126239.mtx-redo.eichorn.sbeok.t-flac16). Powerful playing.

Obviously a superior version from a run full of them, but Joe_Brown and Quibus point out the obvious weakness: the transition into Big River. They land it, and it's interesting, but things fall apart for while.
