Seems like this one is going nowhere....band/Jerry sneeks up on you, and all of a sudden you are in the midst of a high octane groovefest!!!!

International Amphitheater

Epic slow-burning funk. Gets better as it goes, and as Garica gets louder in the mix...one of my favorite stand alones!

A fantasticly jazzed out version, Garica's long slithering solo is the longest to date...

Playin' In The Band
May 21, 1974
Edmundson Pavilion

I dig this one a lot. I don't think it's the best Playin' despite its length, but there are some awesome segments that will definitely keep me coming back. The jamming right around the 30 min. mark, for example, is especially wicked!

Jerry's tone is very crunchy and distorted at times...he repeats a wild Main Ten-like figure during the jam that gets really intense. Love it!
