Hits a great groove early on, with some cool interplay before the first verse.

If you like some of Jerry's guitar effects from early versions of "Dark Star," give this a listen! Short but sweet.

Cool transition from "Space," and the organ in the intro is hot. Leads into a smoking "Watchtower"

Hide your kids from this super heady space, lest you give them nightmares.

This just put me in two places at once. Calendar cycles.

Yes! Organic. Hive mind. Collective consciousness. Truly special stuff.

Surprised more people haven't commented on this! Some great playing, lots to listen to.

I personally thought this Bertha > GL was the weakest part of the show, but that's just me. I agree that this is a serious contender for the best of '77, though. The entire show is killer.

Just wanted to add that after living with this version for a while and checking out the whole show, I really like this version. Truly phenomenal playing.
