Knickerbocker Arena

Not Knickerbocker Arena but Compton Terrace. Blazing version, huge passion and a rollicking vibe!

Yeah this one's pretty special. An aching, burning energy like embers in a fire

dark and mournful and cosmic. a must-listen
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
March 26, 1973
Baltimore Civic Center

a jumpy, kicking rendition - for a song whose rep is pretty dicey, this version feels like a whole lot of potential - later versions don't "work" for me but this one sure does

uptempo, rollicking, measured but free -- this is how this tune was meant to sound!

Baton Rouge International Speedway

This is shockingly great. Lightning speed, rhythm section fully locked in, harmonies loose but grooved...not to be missed
