The "on the road" sweaty dust of the west is oh so perfectly expressed on this take - '71 perfection.

Thanks - I played this on my show this morning and think it is superfine. Comparing to Spring 71 it's just wild to hear the difference (and great change with Keith who was wide awake to me on this take) - even tho I love the raw crunchy cranky CRS's.

Have always loved this one for the sustained groove they achieve - straight up musicianship over showmanship here. Not calling it the best but surely deserves a listen.

I would vote for this one again if I could - close to perfect with everyone throwing in sweet touches.

Hell yes - especially wedged in the middle of a TOO > after the show more than a few heads must've wondered if they'd actually played this. HA
