DOWNLOADS OF THE WEEKEND:

In all the madness of Fall ’97, this Philly weekend sometimes gets left in the dust. Surrounded by Hampton and a legendary Cleveland > Detroit > Dayton run, The Spectrum shows don’t always get the credit deserved. Both second sets were monsters, strewn with all sorts of improvisation. and ten tons of cow funk.
