Candyman

Merramec Community College

Almost a prayer. Stripped down, pure, harmonized and beautiful. Fans of the acoustic Candyman shouldn't pass this one by.

Sweet and solid show opener. A pure expression of the peak '70 year sound. Strap in and enjoy the show....

Yeehaw, but that's a sweet rare tune. Put Sawmill next to Slewfoot for gems from the era. Awesome stuff.

An acoustic lovely. I think DG is there on backup. It's rough-hewn, like just a couple offriends jamming on the verge of the bad crazy 1970s.

Acoustic wow factor, with beautiful harmonies. Unfortunate gap towards the end, but worth it still.

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

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.
