Notes sbd - fink edits. Some crackle in a few spots (right channel mostly) that isn't too annoying. They seem pretty rusty for this show, though the lack of practice/familiarity means that the songs have a freshness or slightly unusual flourish here and there from the highly consistent "Just exactly perfect" band they will strive to be. Not much happens "jam wise" until Truckin', which though the vocals are flubbed, the jam on "The Eleven" theme is a must hear and odd because they stopped playing this song way back, so one wonders way it was the basis for the jam after the Truckin' verses were dealt with?? Drums didn't do much for me. But out of drums they do a rare live performance of King Solomon's Marbles. Some minor timing miscues (maybe this tune demanded too much concentration to keep everybody together so that's why they dropped it...). Nonetheless cool to see the Truckin' > 11 jam > drums > King Solomon's Marbles > NFA segue performed! The NFA has a somewhat rough start but eventually Jerry takes over and wails away nicely.
