10
Eyes Of The World
Really dark sounding jam dominated by Phil and Jerry. Some unique, jazzy soloing from Jerry too.
10
Morning Dew
Viva La France
1
Uncle John's Band
Beautiful and full of flowing energy
4
Bertha
Show opener with mix off: not perfect but interesting to hear Phil/Bobby interplay (almost exclusively), which is rare for '74 recordings.
6
Space
10mins of absolute weirdness. Incorrectly listed as Seastones - but Jerry, Keith and Billy are there with Phil and Ned. An outrageous corker. Scary.
8
Playin' In The Band
Overlooked space-jazz masterwork. Mercurial and vast. Listen to it as the outcome of the Space before it and BANG! you're on a deep ride furthur.
1
Around and Around
Another rocking version, they had this tune dialed in september 1974
6
Row Jimmy
Real nice set 3 opener from France w/ Ned Lagin.
3
China Doll
Beautiful and delicate melts wonderfully out of a gorgeous Eyes of the World.
2
Loose Lucy
For pure, sheer fun, few tunes beat a great Loose Lucy! This is a great Lucy!!!
