Sometimes 30 Trips has longer tunings and other times the SBD does. A few tunings are trimmed and these run a little fast, needing -1% pitch correction, as does the official release. SOURCES: The miller_20675 is the remaster of miller_20732. Me & My Uncle - one drummer snap & barrelhouseĮyes of the World - melted faces and Phil dominant Et bon nuit à tu.įriend of the Devil - whether French aimed or not These last few are middling fare and with the encore, like much of the show the previous night was the big one. Luckily for those that already had it (to presumably familiarize themselves before the show), five of its songs were played. There's recognition from the punters at Ship of Fools, so Mars Hotel must have been available in France (it barely was in the U.S.). This was the first Caution since the last Europe tour (11May72 w/Pigpen), though it's really just a Caution-structured jam. Note that in '74 Phil split his strings into stereo - he's doing it, and not the soundboard/mixer (in person anyway). Phil soon starts a Caution, or tries, and for awhile you get a blend of MLB/Caution. Phil backs Billy on Drums, then Jer comes out, and what you get is more of a unique jam than a "Drums" then out comes Bobby, who starts a Mind Left Body. Truckin' is a bit thin during verses, with several flubs, but it gains a stride during the jam (which is also not the tightest). He's Gone is potent as a whole - Bobby adds much here - but I don't think it matches, say, 7/29 or 10/17. There's a very nice seg into China Doll, but it then gets messy with Jer clipping off measures and Phil/Billy having to add or drop beats. As with much of the show, Phil dominates. Eyes of the World is great even though it's a little forced compared to the two previous shows.

Me & My Uncle is just the thing for it - a snappy version propelled by just Billy, plus Keith playing wonderful barrelhouse piano. The mics are finally fixed for Peggy-O, but it's way downtempo and flat.
There are still tech issues marring Big River.
Tech issues keep things from being ironed out, so it's a wash. After Loose Lucy has a false start, it turns into Stars and Stripes Forever, then briefly a Tico-Tico no Fubá. Though not on par with the best of '74, Playin' in the Band is a must-hear-once, with its varied pieces. Beat it on Down the Line-5/7 and the next couple are average '74, whereas To Lay Me Down is perfect.and very dry. It probably should be "Ces sons que tu entends? Bavardage!" Or maybe Phil was just a fan of JFK's doughnut. Puzzled Dijonnais may have heard "Leave your teeth on the floor". But there's a problem mixing-in English like this, because in French it sounds like "Laisson tes dents le parterre!". Jer sometimes made little exclamation points, like the chirp after "heart of gold band" after which he rides his volume knob for another golden moment. Black-Throated is the average run-through but this Scarlet Begonias is one to behold. Compare it to a few shows down the line, on 10/19. All four versions from '74 use this arrangement, but the other three don't have the charm of this comeback. That's because they hadn't played it since 11Dec72, but I also suspect this is a version to interest French fans familiar with the album version, to give them a hand onto the bus. X factor arrives with a wonderful Friend of the Devil. On Jack Straw you get the drumming that didn't exist in the two-drummer era. It's a decent opener - it's the early jam slot that makes it good. Uncle John's Band is uptempo (even after pitch correction).
The former is a very clear recording for the Wall of Sound, which usually has that weird, muddy sound on the vox and a lack of clarity on the individual instruments.įirst Set. SBD with tunings and regular FM versions. This is probably the 4th best of the seven E74 shows. Due to short notice, lack of marketing, or just the small market, only a few hundred people turned up.
The band's management were all fired or quit after the show in Bavaria, so they had to get themselves to this show and, as often happened in those days, the promoter tried to stiff the band (Billy flashed a blade). But the booking fell through, dashing Riviera dreams, and a promoter arranged this show in Dijon, in east-central France, to fill a six-day gap before Paris. They had hoped to play Arles, since they had never played down in Mediterranean France. Bringing the giant WoS to another continent was a logistical hydra and they ended up with just four stops. This was at Parc des Expositions de Dijon, probably in the center hall, not the 600-seat theater.
