Another Formula 1 snapshot brent LLR. Bulging builds with graceful battering ram and icy southwestern lead work, jazzy patient coda. 40 years TDIGH

Spanish Jam
Feb. 14, 1968
Carousel Ballroom

absolutely insane '68 Spanish Jam. The lovey-dovey, flower power vibes of the era are thrown out the window and swapped for pure, dark menace. Phil is just out of control on this. Makes me want to check out the rest of the show.
