JG throws out ripshit solos all over this Fire and then they take it chillier on the ride out- no long crescendo at the exit but hot damn he pummeled some of my good friends with this... wish I was there but back on the east coast.....this was one venue I missed badly.

Yowzer - nice peek at what is coming down the pike in '72...I like these shorter ones that go bananas without wandering too far off...
