Sounds like Jerry wasn't done soloing when Donna started the "wind in the willows" verse...awesome early version regardless.

Very well sung by Jerry and a tasty little solo.

Just listened to this for the first time on the Dave's Picks 34 Bonus Disc...fantastic! I'm not sure if it's just because the show was in Miami, but it sounds like you're on a voyage to the lost city of Atlantis! Then the slow return to the theme sounds like the journey back to the top, being careful not to go faster than your bubbles, with each band member bobbing to the surface one by one. Billy does some cool and powerful stuff with the toms as well that I haven't heard on other versions, but I'm also pretty new to '74...

One of the best I've heard so far. Sounds fantastic on the PNW box set
