another spicy jambalaya rendering from this configuration. Tight and loose simultaneously with excellently intuitive coasting byway jamming.

barrels in and kicks ass. Definitely some first show of the year magic on this. Revives the blues/soul energy of set 1 to leave us smilin' and dancin

loose kinetic cannonball energy and more fluid acrobatic bluesy group playing deserve another shout out tonite!

Stella Blue

Winterland Arena

magical stella with some absolutely fantastic dual lead work from jg and bw at the end. No one does a ballad like these guys
The Other One
March 20, 1977
Winterland Arena

So underrated. I just love 77, through and through and through. Stephen-esque spaciness looms throughout this mammoth version of the other one, especially in the lysergic second half.
St. Stephen

Winterland Arena

What a treat this St. Stephen, cruisin' down a sunny highway at calm speed, smelling the roses all the while. '77 goodness.

Promised Land

Winterland Arena

Spilled water on my computer last night while this was playing, cursed version (it's fine now, the dead gods are smiling on me)
