Jerry and Bob are both really good on this one. Phil and Bill drive it forward nicely as well -- doesn't drag at all like some do.

Sing Me Back Home

The Spectrum

I favour the E72 versions for the warmth of Pig's organ, with 5/4 Paris being my all-time fav, but this one is great for sure.

Maybe not the very best, but better than most! In the upper-echelon, for sure...

One of the best I've heard!

Beautiful version that captures the dreamy vibe of the studio version well...

Really starting to sound like '73, as is the case on a few other tunes this evening as well. Great version.
