Stephen , I agree ;I actually think it's some of the best playing by Pat and Jaco too
 
 This is wonderful ! I have heard it many times I have a DVD , a CD  ; Jaco was really great with this band lineup . ( but then i can't find anything that he played where he was not )

Here is a Pat Metheny piece that I like a lot; .

I haven't listened to Joni Mitchell in some time and that set reminded me of the fact that she makes great bedroom music; seriously, you could spend all day naked with a significant other in and out of bed and Joni could be the soundtrack...Tony

Finally watched the Hot Tuna Rock Palace show. Best footage of #1 I've ever seen!  The audience was groovin'!
 
What a tone from Casady. Has anyone had any luck replicating that sound without a Versatone amp?

sonicus

Hello Rob ,  That tone is wonderful , I agree 1000%.
 
 I have experimented with a stack of similar speakers and  power amps .
ALEMBIC Series II Bass strung with Pyramid Gold strings -  Alembic IN-2 -SF-1 Superfilter-  Alembic F2B preamp -Yamaha P2200 power amp X 2 - 4 Alembic A15 type  cabinets with Gauss 4580's  -1 Alembic B12 type cabinet W/ JBL K120's   -     I  Alembic A18 with 18' Gauss.  
 
The above produced  Sweet Thunder   however the slightly overdriven top end was missing that was INDEED PRODUCED FROM THE VERSATONE AMP ! ---- I know someone who had a pristine old one in perfect shape for sale, But those things did not have the build quality that I would expect for what the asking price was .  I know someone that has a schematic for those.  I  think I know what is inside . There would be another way to get their effect if I really wanted my top end overdriven. Bi amp a mono feed and send highs  to an amp to over drive the highs a bit  and a  few small speakers - 12's or 10's. ____ Experiment are fun .

I am glad you like it Dave. Back then when I heard and saw  Jack Casady play 72-001 and Phil Lesh playing in The Dead is what made me want to play Bass as a 14 year old trumpet player .  I thought , LIKE ____WOW man . .    This video Still made me say WOW,  just today even  !

Really enjoyed the Hot Tuna concert. It was great to see #72-01 in action! The audio wasn't too bad either. Thanks Wolf, for posting the link. Much appreciated!
