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.

Very true Grendel I think we all have an attachment /bias to shows - in my case 4/14/84 landed in my hands like kryptonite with the bonus of being taped by Eaton who now fronts DSO. Also what later became Ladies and Gents was the powerful and just mysterious FIllmore April 71 tape. Anyway -I will never forget hearing Englishtown's 1/2 Step for the first time which blew me away with Jerry's BRIO - that one opened my eyes big time- I'm gonna check out these other ones...this board's got some life to it - thanks Darkstar + Catalonia + CGarces + Grendel...
