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.

Humdinger with Jerry spraying us on the baked hill in Monterey...finely, finely delivered rendition here worth a spin. Source: CM

Lots of soldering and welding WEIRdness here - different and far out from the usual style.

Hey Crow this one is tight right? Let me know what you think of the 3/23/72 - I think it might be the perfect one...I love some of the later shark attack JS's in the late 70's and speedy early 80's but damn if '72 really wasn't THE year for Jacks.

Very,very good like this one alot - the outro intro into the TOO is spectacular - also like 11/22/72 - check that one out and tell me what you think. Right now that one's my favorite.

This is the Thomas' English muffin version right here - so many damn nooks and crannies - love them all. Just letting it go and getting weird in the best way. Take the ride and see. You're going to need a rest after this one...
