Compact but intense. Vivid and hallucinatory.

Not on autopilot! Hear them having real fun with MAMU like it’s 1974.

Bruce pummels this one, repeating a hummable lick apparently unique to this version. It elicits a big finish from the whole band.

Concerted and intense in the last few minutes. A team effort.

Looks Like Rain

Greek Theatre - University of California

Brent's clever accompaniment helps the ending jam levitate and glide.

This version has IT.

Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium

Swing Auditorium

One of those performances where you can hear how much they loved this song and how fun it is to play and sing.
