Hollywood Bowl

Wildly exuberant both before and after "SSDD" vocals. And Billy is all over this great AUD.

Miami Arena

Played pretty fast (for the slow version) and heavy with MIDI and spirited playing. Not to everyone’s taste, perhaps, but I like it!

Primal Dead throwback. Absolutely electrifying.

This is an amazing, symphonic Space with a beautiful sense of movement. Highly recommended.
Shakedown Street

Rainbow Theater

Jerry's playing is really hot by the end of this extended jam. Recommended.
Weather Report Suite
Oct. 21, 1973

Let It Grow jam builds to a wicked Caution-like inferno. Ridiculously good.

Relentless, exploratory, and smokin’ hot.
