Winterland Arena

Awesome 17+ minute jam. Very sharp, jazzy leads - a rival of 11/11/73.

Gets pretty spacey, sounds like they hint at Tighten Up a little...

Legendary warp-speed jazz fusion jamming. Keith sounds like Herbie Hancock at times. I also dig how they revisit the "Stronger than Dirt" theme at the very end.

Whole band is absolutely ON FIRE, one of the hottest of Fall '73.

Lots of lyrical flubs but ol' Jer makes up for it with some stunningly good playing...definitely dig
