Description:

Jerry’s vocals emotionally charged.
Tight, anomalous, fawless, solos.
Unhinged and
murderous NFA.
Truly exceptional, peerless show.
A mass of deviant highlights.

Restored and remastered from the original broadcast.
Limited edition digipak.
“When someone is improvising, you hear distinct personalities coming out.
In terms of
kinds of music, I’ve been getting more interested in harmony as an idea, more interested
in the formal ideas of composition.
What interests me has changed its focus, but I don’t
have genre favorites.
There was a two or three year period when I only listened to ’40s
and ’50s gospel music.
That was the only thing I listened to.
Structures, the deepest
changes, the most incredible harmonic stuff.
I listen to that to absorb the sense of it, like
reading sentences – rather than playing along to learn licks, which is not of great interest
to me now.
The most important thing to me, that experience: being onstage, playing
music, and having it be good.
If it isn’t good, I would just as soon die.
I mean, yank me
away.
I wouldn’t want to face anybody.
I live from that moment to that moment.” J.G.’77
