Playin' In The Band
June 22, 1976
Tower Theatre

For a while Bob is just begging to take this into Dancin', but Jerry and Keith keep pushing it into some Bitches Brew sessions style jamming with vague hints of Spanish Jam early on. Killer.
Eyes Of The World
June 18, 1976
Capitol Theatre

Joyous and thoughtful with some incredibly nuanced passages in between the blissed out jamming you've come to expect from Eyes. How is this so low?
Friend of the Devil
June 17, 1976
Capitol Theater

One of those great '76 moments where Keith and Jerry are melding minds in a way that's actually satisfying. Easily one of the best slow versions I've ever heard and certainly the best of the June '76 run.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
June 17, 1976
Capitol Theater

The way the Supplication simmers under some very psychedelic heat makes for some of the most patient, gorgeous jamming of the tour. Short, but sweet.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
June 17, 1976
Capitol Theater

The Slipknot is satisfying if not quite transcendent, but the Franklin's absolutely rips.
