Kicked it up a notch... glad to have gotten to know this version better.

Always great to blast this one – an excellent, frenzied installment from the intense period in the evolution of this song. I am now sufficiently Dusseldorfed, even Rheinhalled, and can therefore carry on with my day.

Yup. +1'd it way back when. Longtime favorite. Well executed. Jugband meets pyschedelia.

Hung with this one’s brisk, confident, and enthusiastic pace up the trail; moving through the heart of the journey being both reminiscent of other outings during this time and distinct unto itself -- while all the while quenching that ongoing pursuit of exploration; upon return, still enjoying the forever altered familiarity that began with that timeless tap on the shoulder.

Notes in the break stuffed to the rafters -- incredible.
