Oct. 19, 1972
Fox Theatre

Two huge swells in this one. The first is a very funk jam led by Keith and Billy. The next involves a manic peak by Jerry. Worth checking out

Long Beach Arena

This jam is a patient wave of energy that hits a progressive peak, then dissipates as cautiously as it grew

Long Beach Arena

Jam starts fairly mellow, then Jerry vaults it into noodley hyperspace

Jerry calls for Keith to solo and he owns it. Great vocals by Jerry and Pig kills on backing organ

This one crushes. Jerry absolutely layering the goodies on in the solos and fantastic Bobby work on rhythm during the verses to set the tone. Remember this one from tapes and always dug, but haven’t heard in ages til the release just now. Def upper echelon version!
