This live recording captures a pivotal moment in the band's career, just as they were gaining traction in the jam band scene. Leading up to this performance, they had released their self-titled debut album in 1991 and were still riding the wave of its success, building a loyal fanbase with their blend of rock, blues, and jazz influences. By 1992, they were honing their live improvisational skills, which would soon become a hallmark of their shows.
