Playin' In The Band

Warfield Theatre

Great example of early '80s style. Mick on the xylos or Brent on some synth job all good.

Jer spanks this rendition with extra hot sauce - and does not disappoint. Super Phil touches check the CM source.

Lively, clean, energetic version with Brent doing his doobie brother backup gig perfectly.

The Other One
Nov. 22, 1972
Austin Municipal Auditorium

Whole band is jazz cattin’ the shit out of this unlike any other one (ha) I’ve heard. This take is flat out groovy as fuck - not bananas at 120mph on stamps but more like 72mph on a hash buzz. Everyone showcases and Bobby’s rhythm interlude is super cool. So worth the ride!! Really cool musical conversations happening this whole show ( see China>Rider, Bird Song, PITB & He’s Gone in particular) altho I think the Candyman, Ramblin’ and Stella are both notable listens for “standard” structured songs as well.

One of a kind sounding - notable for JG's determined solo'ing with some periodic flares and overall blues busting. Worth a spin.
