Subtle power and perfect execution. The "retirement" shows are full of pure, clear playing.

Honolulu Civic Auditorium

Relaxed (Hawaii, natch) vibe without a Pig rap, but the band sounds just outta sight and Pig is on. Good times here.

Powerful vocals and a tight sound in front of what sounds like only 100 people.

You've never heard anything like this before. Out take from American Beauty era, mis-dated on Archive, but absolutely wonderful.

A+ goddamned good, keeps me bobbing and weaving. Hard throbbing, and into a killer TOO, too.

He's Gone
Oct. 15, 1976
Shrine Auditorium

This is one of the best shows of 1976, and every song just jams and jams beautifully (except maybe Bertha, which sounds like an unplanned mess). This He's Gone is one luscious peak after another. So beautiful, so fine.

This scorcher will amaze you. Jerry burns with the force of a thousand suns. Really.

The "It Factor" is dialed way up past 11 here folks. Don't skip this show. Strap on some headphones and cross that Rio-o-o-o Grande. This one is a beaut. I keep using the word "powerful" to describe their playing on this show and I think it's apt. Check out an under-the-radar MHUT and enjoy!

The Devils take this one to the races. The whole set is one colossal jam after another.

The jam out of this is so good. It sounds like half the band is playing Playin' and the other half is playing The Other One. Could some one with better ears than mine tell me if that's right? Are they jamming 6/8 over 10/4 for a patch? Wild.
