No Reason To Get Excited

I don't think I've ever heard a bad version of this. Both Dylan and Neil Young did it well but Jimi Hendrix's version is unsurpassed, I think. It's from the same period as Split Part 2, though a couple of years earlier, if I recall, and carries me back to my bedroom every time I hear it. It also reminds me of my time as a mature undergraduate at Sheffield, much to the chagrin of Mrs Gruff.
