Footnotes

Abraxas - Abraxas – A rare stand-alone Abraxas. The jam starts off quiet, dark and almost sinister. Magner with great backing work and sound effects. Barber finds a hauntingly evil lick that becomes the theme of the jam. Allen in the pocket with Brownie’s bouncy basslines. All four members putting in WORK during this jam. (Excellent communication between all four members this whole jam.) The intensity builds and Barber goes wild for a great Abraxas peak.

Tempest - An excellent jammed out Tempest. At 7:30 the jam develops a unique, melodic theme outside the normal song structure that continues until 10:28 when Barber starts a catchy, repeating riff that builds to the end of the jam. 1 of the most interesting versions yet played.
