Merles Saunders and Jerry Garcia, Keystone, Berley, CA - 1973

<

>

A 2 hour, well recorded Live set during the Live at the Keystone sessions - instrumental and bluesy, jazzy fusiony thing from the early 70's. Lots of links to this music, but I chose this one because I am listening to it in real-time as I type.

Note - This doesn't have any of the songs that are on the album hits on their Live at Keystone album (so far). It's mainly just free-form great music jam.

Merle and Jerry are doing their own things - very, very well - and John Kahn, on bass, keeps it all together. Some great windwork,too. 1/3 of the way through. I am hearing Jerry's early chords that ended up on the Dead's mid-70's albums. You'll know them when you hear 'em.
