At times pretty, at times a little weird, but somewhere past 8 minutes, it's downright gorgeous...

Henry J Kaiser Convention Center

Explodes out of Scarlet...a very dreamy Scarlet. Weird & unexpected, not the let-down some might expect. Not at all. Bob's a bit scraggly though...

Lakeland Civic Center

Absolutely unique and cool. His Mu-tron wah wah or whatever in tarnation it was Jerry was pressing on builds beautifully and gets us back to Tennessee in fine fashion. Followed by a perfect Minglewood, perfect Row Jimmy, amidst a just about exactly perfect show from May of 1977. Go figure!!!!!

Jai-Alai Fronton

One of the best China-Riders of '74, which means this is sacred, epic, profound and thoroughly rip-roaring fun.
