Greatest Story Ever Told

The new SBD's are crystal clear, with everyone audible. Whoever that Billy guy is could sure play some goddamned drums. He's solid gold on this one.

Charged up and triumphant. The whole week of shows before Europe is killer. Thanks go to C. Miller for the great archive versions.

Key moment in transforming PITB into a cosmic monster. 9.5 minutes of gooey goodness here. C.Miller's version is the best. Dig in boys.

The outro might be the three most intensely energetic minutes of GD music ever. The first part rocks too. Why not here yet? This show is a goldmine.

Now I know a lot of you don't dig this song, but goddamn they pour it on for this one. Great Jerry filagree backing the passionate vox. Listen to the

Playin' In The Band

Boston Music Hall

Not as face-melting as December 02, but has great energy and beautiful jamming.

Great all around show. One of my faves.
The Music Never Stopped

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Bobby and Donna are having so much fun. I'm not one to comment on Donna, but wow, she just sounds great here and adds a lot. (!) Out of sight jam too.
The Music Never Stopped
Sept. 30, 1976
Mershon Auditorium, OSU

I always thought of MLB as the jam that morphed into The Music Never Stopped around the pause in '75, and it's loud and clear here. Nice version, but too short!

Miami Arena

Captures the dark cosmic chaos. Emotional, heavy. The forces tear loose from their axis, indeed.
