I know it - I think this show holds up very next to its Ark brethren. But the Ark trio would just make a tidy little case of fireworks.
Weather Report Suite

County Coliseum

a fresh '73 WPS is always welcome on these shores. But this one is sorta pointillic, he said, out of his ass. Crispedelic even. Garcia high steps out @12:00. High-end electric guitar improvisation. Improvisitation.

I completely concur ds67: this show is a total classic. Love all these 72 Paramount shows.
