Punchy with some heat. Pigs tone on the pipe organ(?) or electric piano makes this special too. Source:CM

Bob's slide work is CLEAN and on point and Jerry is in a frisky mood this night. Brent's B3 is hummin' - this version peels paint.

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.
