Great interplay and hot jam in every combination in the birth month of the great quintet. Forgotten show.

Not my favorite song, but this one rocks. Plus Jerry eviscerates a heckler after.

Goddamned hard crunching rocker here. Jerry's guitar is so sharp it sounds like breaking glass (in a good way).

Playin' In The Band

They really push down on the 10/4 melodic form here, giving it a "The Main Ten" feel lost soon after. KG's 1st month is full of transition Playin's.

Masterpiece. The Jam out of drums into the first verse is inventive and exploratory, very subtle interplay. Totally overlooked. Dig it.

This whole run is beyond immortal and every CRS just kicks. This one is brilliant.

Hey there's a bit of Terrapin in here. Check out Jerry's melodic lines starting just around 06:50. Am I crazy or is there a little theme that suggests they were already working it out, and he slipped in in? So cool.

Exactly what darkstar 67 et al said here. I'd only add that Jerry solos throughout with quicksilver brilliance, note-for-note beauty. He was bursting with ideas here.

This isn't space. This is just TOO>Morning Dew. It's awesome, but calling it space is anachronistic.

One of the nicest ones I know from '76.
