Dancin' in the Streets

The Matrix

Questionable date, but unquestionably amazing. A great classic jam with a near-perfect recording for the time. A++

Morning Dew

Club Agora

Rough AUD, but showcases a brilliant and intense buildup enhanced by what sounds like a Hammond B3. Deserves a cleanup, as much of 11.70 does.

The Palestra, U. of Rochester

Beautiful jam here, with some great Jerry fuzztone soloing.

Nice warm AUD for the era, with a sparkling CCS and great transition into IKYR.

Anderson Theatre

Whether it's the 16th or the 23rd, it's a real humdinger. Perfect transition out of Truckin'.

Jerry has the voice of an angel here.

Hey right on, Gerry O. That's a great description.

A long sweet ride through many transitive nightfalls. Quite interstellar without going completely inter-dimensional multiverse. No meltdown on this one, but a gorgeous Tighten Up Jam starting somewhere around 14:40.
Hard to Handle

Hollywood Music Festival

A compact gem. The boys were out to impress England tonight. Doesn't have the overdrive power of the famous '71s, but a damned fine single-length version in front of what was like a totally unfamiliar audience.
