Short rocker with expanded forces. Killer.

Can't believe this isn't on here. Worth hearing for what Hornsby plays behind Bobby, much less Branford.

A touch faster than some of the others from this month. Stunningly beautiful playing.

This "Supplication" is a thing of beauty! Some great exploratory playing.

In the mood for a great LLR? Look no further.

Good first lead, then Jerry wonkles most of the next verse. Rhythmic but less melodically stellar than 05-12. One of the neatest parts comes when Jerry anticipates the chord change to F and has to maneuver out of it. Up vote.
Sugaree

New Haven Coliseum

long, patient, hits nice peak and band keeps exploring after that. Nice exploratory second section before final verse, but loses steam after that. Don't personally care for the 05-11 show, but there's a nice "Sugaree" from the otherwise mostly unremarkable 05-03 show.
