Sweet version with just Bob and Jerry for the David Letterman Show. Funny interviews + a Monkey & the Engineer. On YouTube. Jer outsmarts David L.

Playin' In The Band
April 5, 1971
Manhattan Center

'71 Playin's are a special kind of love: nothing like what it became, a clang machine 10/4 poppin' country yodel. This one knocks my socks off.

Weather Report Suite
Nov. 19, 1972
Hofheinz Pavilion

The Prelude only, but really it's a thematic and 2nd meltdown to the mind-blowing Dark Star. Under certain circumstances this one could be dangerous.

Capitol Center

A seamless sweet groove - into a very cool TOO. This show doesn't get enough love - all Summer '74 is hot, but this is a real corker.

Some of the best boogie-woogie cowboy barroom stride piano from Keith here.

Nice long ride. Up and down, squiggling peaks followed by blissful space, followed by further peaks....

Just amazing. Where's the rest of the show?

Nice but incomplete. We'd be grateful for any link to a full show during this amazingly dead month.

Assembly Hall, University of Illinois

The meltdown shoots you out of a cannon like surpise ayahuasca after the deceptively mellow vocals.

Short and sweet. Really mellow vocals followed by a shot-out-of-the-cannon meltdown right into a great Eyes.
