Widespread Panic

In the summer of 2016, Widespread Panic was in a particularly dynamic phase of their career, following the release of "Street Dogs," an album that came out just the year before, in 2015. This live recording of "Cortez the Killer" at the Les Schwab Amphitheater features the band on July 3, during a time when they were enjoying significant momentum and a fervent fan base. With Jerry Joseph joining them on stage for this performance, it highlights the band's collaborative spirit and their knack for inviting guest musicians into their set, something that’s long been a hallmark of their live shows. Widespread Panic is known for their improvisational style, making each performance unique—this rendition of Neil Young's classic captures that whimsical essence beautifully.
