Concert Summary

The Steve Miller Band had burst onto the ballroom scene in late 1966 with a unique mixture of sophisticated blues and sonic experimentation. Miller was an excellent songwriter and arranger, skills which made him a huge star in the '70s. These tracks, however, are focused on his fine guitar playing, which was muted during his more successful seventies period.

The current Steve Miller Band album at the time of this recording, Your Saving Grace, was the band's…entire summary

    First track breaks into a "Your Old Lady" jam about 6 minutes in. Very cool.
    And, yeah, I hear that East West jam in the second number, too!
    I saw the power trio with Bobby on bass in early 70 at the Olympic in LA.
    Bill Graham decided to put on Fillmore styled shows in LA and used the old
    wrestling and roller derby palace, the Olympic. Long time associate, Paul
    Jabbara did the introductions and there were two memorable shows (Quicksilver
    and Steve Miller) I saw before the LA Police busted the place down at the 4th show.
    Glad I wasn't there for that one!
    At the Olympic, Miller played an amazing acoustic set...just him on 12 string with
    Bobby and Tim standing alongside for harmony vocals. Kow Kow, Seasons,
    Baby's House (on acoustic??!!), an early version of I Love You and a never released
    track called I Have A Dream. Killer stuff. Then, he plugged in and blew everyone away
    with a great electric set. Great memories.

    I had the privilege of seeing the Steve Miller Band a bit after this as a trio, but he always included a load of blues in all his shows. I'd Rather drink Muddy shows us all a new way to get back in tune using the faux ending of the song.! Both tracks are solid rocking fun.

    The unknown track reminds me of Butterfields "East-West". Not quite as strong but very impressive none the less.

    hell of a band! this era of the band really comes through with the live stuff....tim and bobby really lock in...and steve is just so experimenting with all of his gadgets (echoplex, fuzz-tones...). its sad that 1) there isn't more of this released and 2) more of how he just burned the bay area down with his playing and tight, tight bands..

    its actually tim davis singing on the first track....
