Hot and sweaty sounding mix with a bit of a slow burn from Jerry - not crazy with the macho but cool.

With a crispy clean Darkness groove they lock into strongly at 14:10.

Nassau Coliseum

Now for something completely different - Hell to the yeah - wowzer - warm up the headphones for this one - great, great call - and why I check out this board - all the hitters checked in I see. I swear I heard this intro jam one year at the Maple Leaf during Jazz Fest late show - FAHNKY - mas oui!

Fillmore East

Hey DarkStar Live a little - take in the whole string starting with Dark Star...I had this tape in the '80's - said Fillmore '71 so when L&G was released I got to hear a ton that did not fit on a Maxell 90. Love this year for the energy.
