"Jazz is like blues with a shot of heroin"
-Miles Davis
Stepping away from the blues for a moment:
Sonny Sharrock: 1988 Knitting Factory
-This seemingly improvised piece seems based on the track "Fourteen" from his album "Seize the Rainbow," and the line up seems to be the same, two drummers and all.
Robert Fripp: 1979 Frippertronics Demo
John McLaughlin, Paco de Lucia, and Larry Coryell: Meeting of the Spirits
-An over-the-top guitar trio cover of McLaughlin's Mahavishnu classic. Coryell's hair is at full force, watch out.

Bringing a new meaning to the phrase "hair band." JM seems to be a much nicer guy when he is not wearing his white guru get-up, his interaction with the other players is very pleasing to watch. When he was the Maha-Hatchoo he tended to go into a trance and rock his head like a mental defective. This performance, without the benefit of the Jan Hammer sustain, is fabulous.
