The "on the road" sweaty dust of the west is oh so perfectly expressed on this take - '71 perfection.

The Spectrum

Beautiful delivery of this 3 headed monster. Deserves listens and consideration - multiple jam filled interludes. The Spectrum was rockin'.Whole show rips with energy and I also feel this Shakedown is a hidden gem that is better than the oft cited '82 from this venue. Check the whole gig out!

Fillmore East

Inspired playing in mind meld mode - the Feeling Groovy jam sends this over the top and gets triumphant my, my it's been 20 years since I've heard this. WOW - is right.
