 On par with KC's best shows March 27, 2007
Written by albemuth
I’ve attended quite a few KC shows over the years (starting in 1972). Many of these shows were terrifically exciting. A few seemed stale perhaps by comparison. I went to this Greensburg gig and agree that it was one of the exciting ones. Conditions were favorable: the venue was lovely, the JPJ crowd was receptive, and the KC boys were in good spirits, including the lonely Fripper, who applauded the crowd after the show (which, as readers of this board will immediately recognize, is a favorable sign). This show sits well with the KC Collector’s Club 19 "Live in Nashville, TN," which is one of my favorite KC releases. The Greensburg show seems equally "on" to me. Instead of ProzaKc Blues (on Club 19), the band plays Frying Pan here; and instead of Thela (on Club 19), the band plays VROOOM (and its coda). One particularly great moment: Trey Gunn’s solo bit at the end of Thrush really floored the crowd. He definitely captured something beyond mere notes -- as I hope evident in this recording to those who were not at the gig.
