Sweet and melodious. Jer sings it from the heart and the band is really tight.

Moody, mellow, then into an explosive but still sparse jam (all before the verse). Colossal Phil then blows your mind and speakers. Excellent.

Very uptempo and fun with some great solos. Good energy.

Surpirse not to see this here yet. Martin Fierro guests on sax and the short-lived horn section sounds great. A treat with historical importance.

Ending a first set that seems more '76 than '73 (slow grooves), this one finally gets off the leash and into a great jam.

Hella great energy: Just savage at the transition point from LL>Sup, and Bobby tears it up like his life depended on it.

New C. Miller cleanup makes this an fun-fest, even if they just can't seem to get the monitors right....

There's another funky electric version on the recently posted Charlie Miller cleanup of 23 December 1970, which is different, but also freakin' fantastic.

gdtrfb Era E: Is this the same as the dubiously dated 17 December 1970 on the Archive? I don't have the Family Dog stuff. If it is, it's freakin' hot stuff.

Questionable date, but unquestionably awesome. Should be much higher - and the alternative date (October 4, 1970) proposed by some commentators on the archive is not up here - so listen up, heads, this one is the goods.
