Moments Worth Listening For

The explosive transition from the meditative Sanskrit opening of Govinda into its soaring, full-band choral climax.

The way the Hammond organ and wah-wah guitar lock into a frantic, groovy duel during the bridge of Hey Dude.

The sudden, quiet intimacy of the Swami Prabhupada field recording hidden at the very end of the record.
