Fallout from the Phil Zone. Unique, one of the finest early versions.

HUGE early Dancin', possibly the best ever--they are just totally dialed into one another like fingers of a hand!

Wow, this is superb. Jerry is brutal and sharp as a tack during the intro jam! After that things get more introspective but quite beautiful...

One of the heaviest crescendos ever; the peaks are just unbelievable!

Playin' In The Band

I dig this one a lot. I don't think it's the best Playin' despite its length, but there are some awesome segments that will definitely keep me coming back. The jamming right around the 30 min. mark, for example, is especially wicked!

Jerry's tone is very crunchy and distorted at times...he repeats a wild Main Ten-like figure during the jam that gets really intense. Love it!
