A Homo erectus-like version but notable for Jerry's solo after the first Rio Grandee chorus.

Awesome early version. Jerry has a great solo at the end.

Jerry impassioned yet subdued singing in that ragged and worn voice is deeply affecting.

Jerry's voice and singing at this time fit this one perfectly.

Not sure if Harpur gets as high, peakwise, as this one.

Should of said somewhere that this one has no singing and is just enough of a jam on the main theme that it's called an Other One Jam>Spanish Jam on disc one of DP12. But after listening some more, it seems like it really might be a TOO>Spanish Jam>TOO sandwich. If some great Dark Stars (Miami '74, Dec. '71 Felt Forum, etc.) can go without singing, then so can this TOO. How many TOOs went without singing?
