Brent lends the transition jam a relaxed fusion vibe. Dreamlike, but doesn't lose precision.

Brent on the Hammond will send chills down your spine.

Dick's Picks 30. Band is about to leave for Europe and gives a preview of the tour's signature jam style. Astonishing.

A thing of beauty like all the big jams from this tour, this one's every bit as moody and introspective as freaky and paranoid.

Hot, swampy East Coast summer energy! Very powerful.

Divinely inspired. I’m going to upvote the LIG right now.

Yes, to all of the above, and how ’bout those Phil bombs?

Just ridiculous. I can’t even believe this thing. Don’t go another day without hearing this. (The SBD’s not great, but try the AUD, loud.)

Oh my god!!! This performance is absolutely competitive with the other greats from ’77! Audio quality is the only reason it’s languishing down here with just three votes. The AUD’s really not bad, though, and this is well worth hearing.
