Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication

Definitive by a country mile. Incredible fast weaving interplay during Supplication, and they nail the Lazy Lightning. Perfection.

Some of the best music they ever played right here.

This deserved to be on DP3, a gem that’s up there with the best of the 77/78 versions.

You diagnosed me man! I think the terrible cut where the band is really getting going killed my mood completely, on top of that I think I didn’t really get the groove the first couple of listens. But this is a top shelf eyes. Much more appreciation for the opening jam and first post chorus solo now.
