Good version in an epic concert. One of the best bits of the first set. Second set is cosmic 73 stuff.

Good version from a very good concert. See if you can borrow this from a friend who has the complete set. The first set is cosmic

This is a stunner. Listened to the AUD many years ago, heard how good it was, but the recording is poor, so I forgot about it. Your post Carrion_Crow prompted me to look again. This time I took the Charlie Miller, and WOW. Great. Billy is a little high in the mix, but that is the only minor complaint. Superb version in a great second set.

Agreed. Definitely one of the top three.

Interesting in the development of the song, and heart felt vocals, but for all that probably the weakest bit of the whole concert. With the Pig nailing Next Time You See Me and It Hurts Me Too, and the boys doing Cream Puff and Golden Road, this MD is still in the making, and not there yet.

Falling, falling, (yowahh, I really am falling), falling, falling. What a beautiful mini-rush ! And then the solo a bit later is out of this world.
