Weird, spacey version. Terrible start. Billy's sleeping. Jerry's floating around. Donna starts vomiting everywhere. Keith's at the carnival.

Much, much agreed^^ skipping a lot of '77 performances of TOO is to miss a lot of real gold. They aren't as fleshed out as they were in earlier years at this point, but they are really special.

After all these years, I still haven't been able to figure out what's that droning sound that whirs in and out lowly throughout the early versions, particularly this one. Is that Bob? Jerry? Sounds much more like Bob's style. Any help?

God, I miss the first time I heard this. I couldn't believe how much atmosphere had been captured in this. Haunting performance. Dreadful, almost.
