Sent Dave a quick note: >>Just listened to a zesty St. Stephen from 6/23/1976. Audience tape. It gets my bow tie recommendation. I give it 4 slippers.<<

Rocking with a light touch. Mostly Garcia's aluminum sound machine lighting the dark, musky atmosphere an orangey purple. And very nice AUD, by the w.

It's a treat hearing this song become itself. All the great shit is here, though. Garcia brings the gorilla glue.
Playin' In The Band

Austin Municipal Auditorium

Godchaux with the McCoy Tyner or even Mal Waldron runs - takes an already spacetastic Playin' into RVG's high-ceiling studio - with a view to the stars.

Austin Municipal Auditorium

Smooth & smoky as one would imagine from the calendar. Need to revisit again, but upon listening in the car, saw exclamation points all around me. Not in a dangerous way, but I need to dig in further to this show in general.
