Jam is exceptional. Love Bobby and Keith's chords jabbing and punctuating Jerry's lead

Sneaky version with great playing by Keith and Jerry. Love what Jerry plays at the end of the jam.

I know they should have played Dark Star in Egypt. But this is a fantastic EP. Dynamic, dramatic, Jerry on fire.

Huge, 18-minute version with great dynamics, deep vocals. Bobby's slide playing and interplay with Jerry are great.

Jerry forgets more words than he remembers but as often happens in such cases the solos are burning - especially the second one over the verses and the second one in the coda.

Onondaga Auditorium

Jerry's solo really sneaks up on you. Listen to the crowd lose it with the way he starts the last chorus.

Great solo. You know Jerry's feeling it when he plays an extra chorus
