Airplay perfect. Seems like they wanted to pick up the pace a bit and this one is just fine and dandy.

Muscular and confident, not at all dragging. Don't overlook it. It's brilliant and perfect coming in a blazingly good show and great 2nd set.

This one cooks. Keith puts on a master class of the old razzle dazzle.

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.
