Feel Like A Stranger

Cumberland County Civic Center

Outrageously spacey version. Some killer pedal work in there, not a "dive in head first" kind of version but boy does it deliver in its own way. Cartoonishly spacey.

Whenever the beginning of a jam is a little disjointed, just assume they tripped a little too hard and it suddenly starts to sound good again. This one's a prime example. The groove they eventually fall into is so kickass.

supremely underrated hypersonic mindmeld jam that even puts some early 70's versions to shame

This one seriously rips. Particularly jazzy. The boys are so in the pocket on this one.

Spectacularly juicy version. Alaskan solstice space jazz. Definitive.
