Hey Now! Played on Mardi Gras day with 10 minute drum percussion lead-in to start the 2nd set! You'll like what the Big Chief say.

Not Space, but since there's no category for "jam" this beautiful calypso improv out of WomenRsmarter will have to do (also has an "Eyes" tease)

From the show always overshadowed by the next night, which is a shame. Fantastic Jerry/Brent conversation mid-jam. Give a listen!

3 versions on archive. Grab the SBD seeded by Brian Cole. Listen to the insane end jam. Listen to the whole thing. This is an A+++ version!

Digging this whole show now. Love the drums in these chill '76 versions. The big jams that would come in later years are absent but especially with the incredibly clear Miller source available you hear how brilliantly Mickey and Billy fill the gaps and propel the song forward.

Franklin's out of Drums is nuts & there's a great Eyes-like mellow and long intro to this one & for those who like stretchy Franklin's this one clocks in around 16 mins. As noted, though, Jerry can't get out of his own way with the lyrics and just repeats a bunch of verses. For me it's just too sloppy for an upvote, but that said it should be checked out for some inspired jam sections and its unique set placement. You may feel it's worthy of some more votes and I wouldn't really put up much fight on that front.

Underdog. Hidden gem. Single digit sleeper. This is the musical equivalent of finding a great hole in the wall cafe that only the locals know about. Easy to miss, but so worth checking out.

First BP I ever heard and still one of the best. Agree with hypnotic as a description. While it lacks the monster outro section of later versions its melancholy feel and atmospheric mellow blues persona can't be beat.

Hesitant to add my vote (but did) because I like where this is on the list right now & wouldn't want to see it rise above too many others (esp. 5/11/77 or 11/2/77) because it's just got too many rough edges to be in the upper echelon. On the plus side Jerry doesn't panic when he misses the "rings on her fingers" line at the very beginning and instead takes a quick round before picking it up a bit later and that gives this one a bit of a unique personality and doesn't detract from what becomes a very good Scarlet with a nice jam into wind in the willows. The segue to Fire is mellow, laid back, with a short burst of Jerry that re-fades into a softer flow drifting into Fire. I do take umbrage with Jerry's total butchering of the lyrics, though. I realie it doesn't bother some but he can't deal with either of the two verses here and does his mumbly Joe thing, which really detracts to my ears. Yes, he does mitigate the damage by crushing the solo after verse one. The outro is good, not spectacular, with many above it on the list--and rightly so--offering better. but this one does have its flares of brilliance and a general benefit of that tight '77 sound and so it gets my upvote. Just hope it doesn't rise too far with a bump from being an official release in this instance.
