Or you could simply turn the volume up and down as needed.  Geez.....

Just caught the Back-To-Front tour recently, which was an awesome show.

Amazing that his voice still has such power!

This is an amazing album, and one of my favorites of all time.

He did "The Family and The Fishing Net" at the show, and I've always thought that song has a similar feel and pacing to this one.

Cool stuff.

in my opinion, there are some gods that did not reach this level of magic!

the final part is simply the best drum/percussion-piece ever published in rock music, imho

hah, yes!!  That was my first introduction to this song, and the reason I sought out all of PG's older albums, I'm so glad he's playing this regularly again with the New Blood Orchestra

Had completely forgotten about that....so since I read your comment I went back and watched the episode (took some digging, not free on hulu anymore), excellent episode.  The music fit well.

That video has been pulled due to copyright laws. Feh.  I do love this song, though. It's compelling and vital - makes me want to wrap a big ol' scarf around my body and tribal-dance. Fortunately, I don't yield to these impulses, and the world's a better place as a result. {#Jump}
