Oh yeah, this song is finding its way, being well-placed after the O1 and featuring affirming vocals

Jack Straw
Sept. 18, 1974
Parc des Expositions

One of my first tape acquisitions, much of this show withstands eternal listening, and several of the songs, UJB, BTW, FOD to name a few are real standout versions. Faced with the choice of where to put my chip, I'm going to vote for this Jack Straw as its a bit down the list and is utterly unique... but I'm afraid I may have already voted for the UJB... or the BTW... or... ENJOY
