I like the 1977 sound of the trio on this. It's Rumoursy. I don't know how else to explain it. Of course, playing it live in 1980, Chris got a bit fancier with her instrumental bridge. But this style -- with the bass & the more prominent rhythm guitar -- is a nice alternative to later performance styles.

I mean, it's all Beethoven, isn't it?

It's not that I don't like it.. I just think they could have jazz'd it up instead of slowly plodding through the song without someone throwing a solo over it.. Christine had ample opportunity to twinkle toe through those chords making the blend balance out a little more...
