Maybe not the most exploratory but it's clear the band is having fun - solid 80's version

Really punchy version. The Oade brothers recording has everyone beautifully in the mix. One of my favorite AUD's.

Any version after '72 with a Sweet Suzy deserves an immediate upvote - really builds both playing and vocally

My dog literally perked its head and ears up when it heard the final solo when I was playing the vinyl release. Totally heady + Keith is the man!

That roar during "Just like New York City" is just awesome - fantastic version.
