Jay,
Thanks for this recording! Sounds GREAT!!! I wore through my Live at Jimmy's vinyl years ago and was having a grand old nostalgia session listening to this. I have the CD but really enjoy your resurrection of this Classic Recording!! Now, if we could only get a quality recording of AT THE TOP!

Wow ... forgot about that goofy bari sax solo ... Ah, what the heck ... loved it anyway

@Drayche It's Bruce Johnstone, not Deblasio.

Wow! Doesn't this just DRIVE along! One of the greatest tunes every written. Shame that words were forced upon the composition. I would have done the same, just made them so stupid as to spite the enforcer!

It is Bruce Johnstone! He's amazing and teaching at Suny Fredonia! :)

I've been looking for this on cd for years but no luck. I'll never let my vinyl album go, this is truly Maynard at his best. Too bad the concert wasn't video taped, that was one lucky lunch crowd to have witnessed this event.
I'm actually holding a copy of Live at Jimmy's (on cd) in my hand lol

Well, I'll be darned. I've looked for that (CD) for some years now with no luck. I was told it was never released as a CD. Did they remix it (maybe not the same mix/EQ/etc)? Where did you get the CD? I'd love to hear it.
At least the cuts I have are from very clean vinyl using good preamp and gear. Minimal processing to maintain original range, levels and sound of the orig vinyl.
