Sounds exactly like I am standing next to the guy taping it. Rippin '70 sonic energy.

Plaintive and soulful take that gets nicely bluesy at the finish a fine example of their sound this year.

Eyes Of The World

Feyline Field

Locked in is right - just a reminder this take is a 10 and if you take a listen you might just turn it to 11. Straight with no chaser right here.
Blow Away
Aug. 27, 1972
Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

I’m pretty sure this was 1st time played and it was known as “The Blow Jam” (sometimes mis-labeled “The Sixteen”). Either way it smokes and supposedly you can hear Phil bust a string in the middle break after Jer’s 3rd woooo...didn’t make the movie due to film crew bathroom break.
