Can't believe I'm submitting this. Long and fun drum circle that's notable because our Jer Bear whips out a steel pan and joins in.

Big River

Wembley Arena

For a few minutes wembley in '90 becomes the fillmore in the summer of 1970, the way the Dead just slide into a no-nonsense Big River. Shivers

Smokin' and refined version of this deep cut, on "All Hallow's Eve" as a chap might say

Weather Report Suite

Jai-Alai Fronton

Best prelude i've ever freakin' heard, and that's a guarantee! This playing is just so refined, tender and free. Part 1 is fire. And let it grow is a massive tornado version, Jerry fireworks abound, and then the guys even start improvising in a PITB-esque manner into china doll. This summer '74 show is aces back to back

Can't think of a better set 2 closer than a nice and fried and alive UJB
