[1] Vocal jam at the end.

Notes: The end of Weekapaug included a vocal jam.

Wow! There is not a single wasted note in this Weekapaug. Trey’s picks a theme early and develops it for quite a while the rest of the band is firing on all cylinders and well-connected. Hot stuff right here and Page crushes the ending chords. Serious business all the way through.

This first set was in my first 20 tapes collected! I think there was a sound check on it as well with an awesome Birdland.
