Another Funk storm from 1976 comes bopping beautifully out of a funky Eyes of the World. Great stuff killer combo listen up and enjoy

Promised Land
This one's all country upfront and then country fried on the outro...nice! (source:CM)

The Music Never Stopped
Jazzy Jazz .... Donna's nicely in tune for a change.
4
Around and Around
Sounds like they split some Lemons and woke up at 4:50 to jam the end into GDTRFB. Worth a spin for the laugh. Source:CM

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
Kinda of a juke joint vibe - playing around with the arrangement a bit.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
Well played, well sung,full of energy. What a way to start a show! This whole show really goes. Give it a whirl.

Ship of Fools
I mostly don't rat SOFs from any year other than 74,but this one is still as good as they get post break.
2
Looks Like Rain
Donna and Bobby in perfect sync, beautifully harmonizing, and backed up with brilliant Jerry fretwork. '76 was Donna's best year by far.
3
Cassidy
Just exactly perfect here. Bobby and Donna were perfection in '76, The little AUD patch doesn't hurt at all. Jerry and the Devils tear it up.
6
The Wheel
Such floating beauty, you can feel the tires humming down the highway. Part of a magic Playin' sammy too. Everything about this is brilliant.
1
Samson and Delilah
These early ones have such brilliant swagger, you can really hear the gospel power to them

Drums
Some Drums + Bass with Phil
