One of those note-for-note perfect versions that leave you staggered and smiling. Just beautiful.

Not a song I usually get so swept up by, but on this one Jer's vocals are just perfect, capturing the sweetness and sorrow of the lyrics. A beaut.

High-powered and tight. This show has nothing but complaints about the mix on the archive. Listen to the Ashley transfer, and see what you've missed.

Such sweet harmony, such sweet sentiment - turning on a dime after the white-hot Dew. Shows the beautiful country chops Donna at her best brought.

Jam starts at around 05:45, never fully forms. Am I crazy? This sounds like NFBM and it continues about 3min into TOO. Very very cool stuff here.

Blisteringly hot version here. Great show all 'round.

Seriously tight and intricate. What a show this must have been. Phil's extensive soloing shows off his enormous genius.

A hell of a lot of music in these 46 minutes. I wouldn't say it gets as freaky as some, say 02.12.73, but endlessly fascinating. Something to contemplate, enjoy, and fade in and out to.

Played almost as a boogie-woogie, and Keith shows off his stride chops. Just lickety-split and dandy.
Mind Left Body Jam

Portland Memorial Coliseum

Turns MLB from a serene chill-out groove into a funk-blaster, and Jerry lets you know it with some vicious steam-whistle guitar noise at the start. Coooooooooooool.
