Murky AUD and incomplete show on IA, but a blaze of fun, this one. Has an itty-bitty Mountain Jam at 1:25 for about 12 seconds.

Some rough spots coming back in, but a very interesting almost Santana-esque first jam and a great Pig groove. Interesting one.

Surprised it isn't here yet. Only one in '71 and it intensely musical and weirdly experimental. Crashes into a short feedback/tuning then a sweet UJB.

Moves between super-charged hard rocker and an open-spaced delicate beauty. Marred by a cut, so how far did it really go? Anyone have the complete?

Soaring jam flirts with tipping into the outer void. Wild beauty with Pig on B3 gives it something extra.

Furious acid rock. This is high voltage stuff, and in spite of a little burn-up on re-entry it deserves a close listen and more votes.

Nice catch. This one is a bit stripped down. It's pretty long at over 16 minutes - but it has a superb, purposeful, and clean ensemble feel to all of it. Plus there's an extended transition jam that feels like Jerry has something really important to say, and he takes his good sweet time to say it.

For a song that wasn't in regular circulation at the time, (played only about 5 times in '72), they absolutely nailed this one. It sends chills down my back.

Hard driving 18-wheeler here, folks.

Spinning this show again, and what blows me away about this Playin' is just how much it pre-figures the heavier electric sound that this song would take on in 1974. It starts getting a bit Electric Miles Davisish just before the eight-minute mark, with the wicked wah and distortion, along with some great key work and - of course - that specially tight one drummer quality from Billy from this period. It demonstrates how they just refused to sit still - the great blistering voyages of Summer '72 Playin's were so fresh, but rather than try and reproduce them night after night, they looked at it from another angle (or another thousand angles) and moved it furthur on, finding more and more in it.
