Powerful, sweet vocals and nice harmonies. Totally overlooked great 1st set on this show.

Keith on a what sounds like a Hammond B3 gives a mad funky vibe. Goes into the Main Ten theme and is pretty hardcore. Special early Keith version.

Solid and grooving with a nice pulse. Keith is still brand new, but fits in beautifully.

Dynamite. Kicks off nicely.

Wharf Rat

Felt Forum, Madison Square Garden

A subtle beauty with a sensitive touch that never gives up its strong pulse. An über-cool slide into Deal sneaks in but doesn't get picked up.

Turn On Your Love Light
April 15, 1970
Winterland Arena

The teeny-weeny NFA is just beautiful. This song (and whole show) fn rocks.
The Other One
April 15, 1970
Winterland Arena

Well worth it's place amongst the top Other Ones of all time (à la GD projects). Unique, high voltage jam, massive '70 sound at its best.
Weather Report Suite
Dec. 18, 1973
Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

This one has it all. One of the most energetic LIG's yet (listening chronologically since its debut), especially in terms of the new pathways they explored in the jam. Goes seamlessly into a beautiful Dark Star too, i.e. Dead heaven.
Greatest Story Ever Told
Dec. 18, 1973
Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

Hot stuff. Jerry's in absolute total command of his guitar. The band is so tight. For a song that sometimes seems like an afterthought, this one shoots out sparks.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Dec. 18, 1973
Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

A sparse and airy China Cat jam, like feathery clouds, and then they just keep kicking into higher and higher gear until we're cruising at high speed in the outer atmosphere. Real pretty.
