Ok. I will agree this is epic. The china cat is sick.

Morning Dew
Sept. 10, 1974
Alexandra Palace

I prefer the May/June 1977 versions, but this has one of the best first solos and then later crescendos that were more than usual for 1974. This easily should be ranked higher. I can't believe how good this version is.
