Hard to Handle
Unique flavor to this one, with Steve Winwood poaching Pig's organ.
5
Uncle John's Band
Unique little nugget of awesome - intro with Phil and Will Scarlet on harmonica. Just freaking beautiful.
3
Cold Rain and Snow
Exceptional version, slightly mellower tempo, with great harmonies and tight jamming. Surprised it's not here yet.
2
King Bee
Sultry swaggering deeply opiated vibe, with a hot harp solo. Was this Pig or Will Scarlet?
5
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Beautiful jam and transition. The mix shows off Bobby nicely, which is rare for the era. His contribution is beautiful here. Enjoy.
2
Big Railroad Blues
Energy and power that struts its stuff. This show seems direly overlooked. Very nice mix and sound quality.
5
The Other One
Whether it's the 16th or 23rd, it's a killerdillerthriller. Ripping version, with a perfect transition from Truckin'.
