It's on the bit after the 'first finale'; they never knew when to stop. 
I think it's Strings and Mk II brass, pretty much randomly battered by 
Wright.

What's not to like about the cello parts on side one? It modulates 
perfectly.

Summer 68 has been a favourite of mine since the day I heard it in 1978. 
Some /great/ chord changes on the brass interlude.
