Gorgous version from start to finish and another piece of 77 that gives the lie to all the Keith and Donna haters.

Spectacular version with perfect outro jam just thought to comment on how it should be ranked near the top and am shocked to find it absent.

This may be my favorite along with every other one they played in the May of 77 pretty amazing when you consider they did the song for over 20 years.
