This was the first show of the "Full Circle" tour, the last tour they did before disbanding, which concluded at the Hollywood Bowl in September that year. Of course they have reunited many times since then, but I guess we should consider this as the last tour.

Believe it or not, I much prefer this tour and album than the Jim Morrison ones. Here the band was somehow on a creative peak, mixing rock, blues, a bit of jazz and funk. A great blend of music. Verdillac is such a great listen!

Incredibly there are no shows currently on DIME with the post-Morrison line-up. Hope I have filled the gap. This is a nice radio broadcast from WGLD in Chicago. Good listen, shortie but goodie. I guess a good companion to the Beat Club footage from the same year that you can find on youtube.
