Playin' In The Band

Dallas Memorial Auditorium

Wow, seemingly a very overlooked gem. Tension and release, weaving effortlessly from mellow jam segments to soaring peaks, without screechy breakdown

The meat and this one is hearty. Whole segment deserves more dap
Uncle John's Band
March 23, 1974
Cow Palace

Notable for not only just the segues both in and out of these UJBs, but flowing jamming throughout the song segments themselves
Playin' In The Band

Cow Palace

Genuinely surprised to see how low this is rated. Aside from a rather comical false start, this leads off a major jam sandwich for the ages. This Playin' in particular is gooey, flowing, creative, and melodic. Just my kind of jamming for the song. Flows effortlessly into subsequent segues. Haven't respun in ages and this segment holds up perfectly, on new vinyl release no less!
