Jam on Garth. Happy New Years one and all!

I never stated the words jam band or anything like that in the comment. Improvised music can be in many contexts, I just meant these people I know don't understand what improv is and therefor cant fully appreciate it, or in many cases even understand when its going on or what's happening. Great improv can be found in Coltrane, Miles Davis, Fripp, Hillage, Fruscainte not just jambands. That's what I meant by a whole world of music.

I haven't read all the comments here, how about a box set of these fabled shows? Granted, the sound check "show" of July 27th is much stronger than the actual event of the 28th, but I like both. All I have in my stash is a rather nice sound check show and an unusual compilation of soundboard, audience, and FM broadcast recording, and all are from multi-generational analogue tapes. A sonic upgrade in store.
