Strap on headphones (AUD quality) and forget about the manic screaming. Listen to Keith, you won't regret it.

Blazing hot. Don't be put off by the AUD quality. Strap on the headphones and go. Brilliant.

This EP is 'just exactly perfect'. Jerry's curlicue soloing over tight ensemble playing in a dramatic rising arc.

Its All Over Now

Teases "Blackbird" in the noodling after, which is honestly my favorite part of this version. Not to disrespect the song, but it didn't move me. This JGB with Bobby doing an acoustic Blackbird sure did, however, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMsS-fIhWuk

Not only is this the first version since 17.06.1975 (not since 1974 as said here), but this may be the very first pure disco beat they played in concert. Disco-dead might not be everybody's favourite cuppa, but it certainly did happen.... Enjoy it you cardboard cowboys!!!

Don't be a heal and head for the exits just yet, trying to get to the parking lot first. They've got one more in them....

It's been a long time since I dipped back into this tour and wow. This is a gem. It has that unmistakeable drive and power of the great '74s and some of Phil's best soloing. What a powerful statement. With that tight odd-metered outro (7/8 + 7/8 + 6/8 I think, maybe... though I'll be damned if I've ever figured it out) I can fully understand why they might have been thinking about an eventual Eyes>Slipknot combination, but this is it, really. Did they ever develop this knuckle-busting combo any further?

I feel like this might be the first moment in the year when you can really hear how categorically they changed their ensemble concept from '76 to '77.
