Fillmore West

This one had to grow on me--but I'm really digging it. It's so hypnotic, but it never goes into Interstellar Overdrive like some DS's I prefer---but Jerry's playing is so mesmerizing. I'm always floored by Bob Dylan's tribute to him where he places him in a lineage of American musicians with Ornette Coleman. I can totally hear that in his playing here
