Rhode Island Auditorium

Insights and meditations on life love and picking up hookers from the great one. See his mind at work, jump on the wagon and ride.

Hard to Handle

Lusk Field House - State University Of New York

Overlooked gritty superfunk. Bobby solos, then Jerry takes him to school. Phil, meanwhile is nuking the world big time.

Dillon Gym

Subtle and musical, slithers its way into an epic Lovelight. Nicely different from others of the era, no NFA sandwich.

Davis Gym, Bucknell University

Another raging inferno. Benefits enormously from a great mix where everyone's audible and you hear Bobby's part. Hot stuff.

Carries forward the intensely creative force of the TOO before it. A glory.

Three part harmony on opening verse. Keith with Bobby and Jerry? Doesn't sound like Phil. Nice.

Just wonderful. Nice long smooth jamming opening up a great show. Maybe my all time favourite.

Excellent transition out of Truckin.

Salt Palace

One of the most challenging and musically interesting TOOs ever. Starts with a great Phil solo; There are sections that sound like Jerry's MIDI work from 15 years later (!), a Phil-driven jam in 5/4 time around 08:00 and a wicked meltdown. A+

Nice long China jam. Great version.
