Tennessee Jed, 1/22/78, McArthur Court

Here’s the Tennessee Jed solo from the famous “Close Encounters” show: 1/22/78 at the McArthur Court gymnasium on the University of Oregon campus.

This solo really builds from a mellow onramp low on the neck to an absolutely bonkers climax way up high. Getting the timing right on the ending phrases took a while. One of my favorite Jed solos.
