7/10/97 Gin- not on jamming chart

TheBag Permalink
TheBag Good, 20 minute long jam. first half is the classic gin style jam, which then drops into this really sick Fish lead groove, really funky.

July 10, 1997

Espace Julien, Marseilles, France

Set 1: Dogs Stole Things, Limb By Limb, Ginseng Sullivan, Bathtub Gin > Llama[1] -> Wading in the Velvet Sea, Jam[2], Olivia's Pool

Set 2: Also Sprach Zarathustra > Julius -> Magilla, Ya Mar[3] -> Ghost -> Take Me to the River[1] -> Jam

Encore: Funky Bitch[4]

[1] Unfinished.
[2] Concluded with a theme akin to Lizards.
[3] Various duets among the bandmembers; Magilla and St. Thomas teases; vampire children references.
[4] Members of Son Seals Band. Take Me to the River and Bathtub Gin teases by trumpet player.

Notes: Llama was unfinished and featured a long, atypical jam that wove into Velvet Sea. The jam after Velvet Sea concluded with a theme akin to Lizards. Prior to the start of the second set, Trey said that in France they love Jimi Hendrix and Danny Bonnaduce, explaining "that's why I'm here," and that he started his career as the Partridge Family's bass player. Trey subsequently teased Point Me in the Direction of Albuquerque, remarked that the crowd was too young for that and that they didn't see the Partridge Family, but that the crowd knew it when they played Hanson the other night (see 7/6/97). Prior to 2001, Trey said they called Fishman "The Orchestral Greasy Troll," prompting some impromptu singing. Ya Mar featured various duets by the bandmembers, contained Magilla and St. Thomas teases, and lyrics referencing "vampire children." Take Me to the River (first since November 21, 1995, or 126 shows) was unfinished. Funky Bitch featured a guest appearance by members of the Son Seals Band and teases of Take Me to the River and Bathtub Gin by the trumpet player.

An egregious omission, for sure. Beast of a Gin!

TheBag I'm pretty sure the last few minutes of the jam have that progression that alternates between two chords very similarly to the piano break in Suzy Greenburg. Just something I noticed.

deBebbler I've been bitching about that for a bit now.

This show gets NO props. It's a travesty, OP.

So overlooked for some reason. The random out of context lizards jam in the first set is so sweet.

The quality is really low, which, I think, is the reason for the under-rating going on.

you must not be listening to the same one I am. The one on the spreadsheet is fantastic, almost SBD quality if you boost the treble a bit.
