Whoa, I can't believe this hasn't been submitted. Great vocal and four minutes of sublime outro solo. Check it out!

Phil is high in the mix. One of the best '71 versions, I believe.

Another fine 71 effort with very good sound and Phil high in the mix

How can this not be voted up? Is no one listening to the summer of 71? You'd think the Phil Phans would be all over this. Instead, there's about 135 versions rated higher.

Goose bumps.

Tasty. Focused. Nicely mixed. The drummers are all over this. As is Phil. It even "mellows out" a bit around 5:30 only to build again with some spirited soloing by Jerry. Then they do it again. Someone calls for more cowbell at the 9 min mark. A vastly underrated workout.

Should be higher. Vocals are about as good as it gets. A very focused Stephen, and then the 11. One of 1970's top sequences?

Off key. You're much better off listening to Harpur. Not exactly one of my favorite songs.
