var csTORL='"Candy Store" (aka "Candy Store/Turn Out the Red Light"):
This interesting little item appeared on ';
csTORL+='the 1975 European tour but wasn\'t really a song, more a jam:
';
csTORL+='
Sam Judd: "This little piece was inserted due to the European follow spots needing a ';
csTORL+='carbon change at this point in the show... I don\'t think it ever had a name & was pretty much just a jam fill till we got the high ';
csTORL+='sign that the follow spots were ready to go... the drum solo that became a staple in Godzilla came about much the same way... simply a piece ';
csTORL+='that could be pulled off without follow spots till the carbon rods could be changed (apparently the rods are longer in the US models)... "';
csTORL+='
Bolle Gregmar: "Let\'s see here... The jams were different about every night, and they were ';
csTORL+='just called Candy Store because it has a lot of goodies there for you... one ';
csTORL+='of the nights the Candy Store was actually a full Grateful Dead feel and ';
csTORL+='Albert started to sing turn Out the red light... so he said that\'s what it ';
csTORL+='should be. I went through these details with him a long time ago when I was ';
csTORL+='young and curious... and he was helpful as few always helped me in deciding for ';
csTORL+='things like these... ';
var acbfij='"Acoustic Blues (fill-in jam)" (aka "State 95 Blues", "2 Shows Today Blues", ';
acbfij+='"Hershey Blues", etc)
Bolle Gregmar: "Acoustic Blues actually had a different ';
acbfij+='name just about every time it happened - it was a sporadic jam every night and some nights Bloom would sing, but mostly it would ';
acbfij+='be Allen goofing about - but the whole band plays it, thus rendering it as a distict and separate song..."';
var DSKicks='
Dom & Submission/Kicks:
';
DSKicks+='
Bolle Gregmar: "';
DSKicks+='This "medley of sorts" starts with almost the full "ME262" and then breaks into ';
DSKicks+='"Dominance & Submission", which features Eric on a long drug speech thing and that\'s ';
DSKicks+='why sometimes "Kicks" (Paul Revere & The Raiders cover) got thrown in, just before they ';
DSKicks+='got back to the "People Do The Polka" bit... ';
DSKicks+='There is no break for applause but both songs are technically in full, just minus the outro of ME262. ';
DSKicks+='It runs a good 15 minutes of the show and was done throughout the late part of 1976 in small variations ';
DSKicks+='every night...."';

Me262 (5 Guitars): indicates this song contained the famous 5 guitar jam (the so-called ';

5 Guitar Medley (Mark III):The ';
FiveG_3+='
Mark III 5 guitar jam first appeared this year sometime immediately ';
FiveG_3+='after Joe\'s bass solo after "Godzilla" had finished. ';
FiveG_3+='Musically, it was based on "The Golden Age of Leather" and I class this as ';
FiveG_3+='a separate entity rather than a jam as, like with the Mark II version, ';
FiveG_3+='it had an independant start, was
not part of another song and had a distinct finish ';
FiveG_3+='before "Born to be Wild" started (often to the roar of a Harley)...
';

when the change ';
