Madison Square Garden

There was nothing like a Terrapin in the Garden! Into drums-quick-weird-almost-Close Encounters-Spanish Jam-rip-roaring Truckin' in the Garden....

Short and sweet and kinda quaint as this was the third time ever, still a work in progress... into a very good Day Job!

Lovely!! Bobby (on the slide) starts chasing Jerry….. Jerry just picks up the pace, and Bobby does his best to keep up!!

And yet….. Spencer Davis’ guitar sounds a bit like Jorma!?! Lol! Very good! Crazy fun show! And yeah… With Bruce and Brent. Very very cool!

The bridge jam is classic ‘74, but what might set this apart from a lot of others at the time is Jerry’s “headlight roar,” which is so reminiscent of the 80s…..

Capitol Theater

Super-charged and fantastic!! We take these Sugar Mags (and a lot of these shows!) for granted. But seriously, this is so full of vim and vigor and Pig’s keyboards are ballistic, wrapped around Jerry’s wah-wah!!! Just sitting there in the middle of a second set, with so much more high-powered rock and roll to come!!

Agreed. Pristine guitar and piano work from Jerry and Keith. Kinda hard to find but so amazingly sweet.
