And Jamerson right beside him. Fun fact: Marvin's vocal was not meant to be doubled. It got mixed that way by accident while he was still working on it, he dug it, and kept it. At least that is what I heard.

This is at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. on May 1, 1972. He plays WGO in its entirety (albeit in a different order). It was released as a bonus disc on the 2001 reissue of WGO. This was his first time on stage since the death of Tammi Terrell in March 1970.

Possibly the most played song I've played. Whole album is up there too. #Classic #Timeless

This ENTIRE performance was legendary wasn’t this for public broadcast? They cut the 2nd half where he plays “Where Are We Going?” Amazing performance

Is the piano out of tune in higher register or is it me only? Don't mean no disrespect, the performance is fantastic.
