Sweet Jerry vocals. A delicate ship setting sail into the post 1974 seas. Good harmonies from Bob and Donna. An overlooked show from an overlooked yea

One of best of 1974. Tight, Jerry inventive and confident, good soloing. Everything a Deal should be. Give it a listen.

Comes out of a MLB jam, a big fat mellow groove sets out what is one of those weeks of really good versions.

They Love Each Other
Feb. 28, 1973
Salt Palace

One of the very best of the versions,my own favourite. This is also one of my top 10 shows. A Great, great night when the band was on top of everything. Download the whole show or even better, buy D.P 28(which also has another great night from 2 days before!!!) Love & Metta CB
Weather Report Suite
June 28, 1974
Boston Garden

One of my very favourite shows. The WRS is superb,then 28 minutes of JAM-oh so sweet that meanders eventually into what I consider to be THE very very best ever US Blues. Show ends with the best most soulful ever Ship Of Fools. Like Europe 72 and the April-May 77 run, the run from 14/5/74 through to the Winterland on 20/10/74 is just one spectacular show after another.
