Powerful version. Is the only reason it's not yet here because only AUDs exist? Jeez Heads, get it together!

Absolute ripper. Band sounds like they started warm and heated up. Great first set.

Starts with Jerry barking orders: "Rock and Roll! Rock and Roll!" and it doesn't disappoint. Caps off a high intensity blazing glory of a show. DP33.

Rare for '76, it starts a bit rough, but then finds its gear and blasts off. It sounds a bit like a mid-80s version to this head.

MLB makes a mini-return 4 minutes in when Jerry pulls Phil out of the song for some fun. MLB is the origin of TMNS. Here they are together.

Samson and Delilah

Soloing is brilliant, and the jam almost lifts off into the Dancing in the Streets territory of the era.

Wasn't too convinced at first by this one. It drags a bit during the first minutes, but then, oh lord, hold on tight because you're about to lose your face. Kicks up around 06:30 min in.

Real love here between Jerry and Keith. Different mixes to chose from, but I'm enjoying the Tetzeli Soundboard. Bobby's a bit lost, but otherwise great separation and a clear sound. Keith is clear and glorious.

Not a KSM. A very cool jam indeed, but doesn't have the melody, structure, meter, polyrhythms or form of KSM. There are arguably thematic riffs in common, but if I had to say, I'd say this is erroneously marked.

Thanks Darkstar67, you can alwaysI trust a Miller source. I'm giving this set another day's listening. This has got to be one of the best hidden 'off the beaten path' extended 2nd set jams ever, with over an hour from Playin' all the way to Around and Around continuous.
