I can imagine that every person who heard this song for the first time would have been awestruck by the last 40 seconds of it. The multi-tracked barrage of strangely layered sounds, some of them played backwards was so mesmerizing to me that I was always in a stupor as the song fades out. Leaving a void in which I could only ask with wonder What did I just hear. Special note: in the old days when people listened to music on LP records much thought was given to how each side of the record would begin and end. It was not a haphazard decision. THIS SONG was the last on Side One. Always leaving the listener in a moment of extended silence.
