Not Fade Away
March 21, 1971
Exposition Center

Murky AUD and incomplete show on IA, but a blaze of fun, this one. Has an itty-bitty Mountain Jam at 1:25 for about 12 seconds.

Good Lovin'

University of Iowa

Some rough spots coming back in, but a very interesting almost Santana-esque first jam and a great Pig groove. Interesting one.

Caution

Fox Theatre

Surprised it isn't here yet. Only one in '71 and it intensely musical and weirdly experimental. Crashes into a short feedback/tuning then a sweet UJB.

The Other One

Fox Theatre

Moves between super-charged hard rocker and an open-spaced delicate beauty. Marred by a cut, so how far did it really go? Anyone have the complete?

Soaring jam flirts with tipping into the outer void. Wild beauty with Pig on B3 gives it something extra.

Weather Report Suite

Beautiful transition out of an epic Eyes, keeping up the mellow vibe of the whole show: Take-yer-time, we'll get there...
Eyes Of The World

Kiel Auditorium

This whole show has a nice take-our-time vibe. They build up slow and steady, but get there in the end, making this another top-shelf '73 Eyes.
Here Comes Sunshine

Kiel Auditorium

Zen-like spacious "hot mellow" like the best of '73. Opening the show like this must have told the heads in attendance, "Gear up boys and girls, we're on tonight...."
Eyes Of The World

Kiel Auditorium

Truly one of the most amazing examples of the GD's brilliance ever. I love this version. No secret that '73 Eyes are soaring glories (wings a mile long...) but this one stands out for its crisp precision and the absolutely freakingly shredding jam after the interlude leading straight into China Doll. Leaves me breathless.
Truckin'

Kiel Auditorium

Beautiful spaced out jazz. Sounds for a second like Jer wanted to go into Stella right before Drums.
