Unusual, long Space for the era. Fans of Feedback will enjoy this one.

Carnival of sounds and textures. Wild stuff.

Pummeling version with Phil cranked UP in the mix.

The whole band creates a seamless, burbling groove. (Listen for Phil pushing through the small spaces Bobby leaves.) Mesmerizing.

The short, country-style numbers sound so good in this set. There's a lot of good music in this show even before the big jams arrive.

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.
