Nongastronomic tourists may settle for sightseeing: hiring a car and guide (average rate: $25 a day) to visit the ancient walled city of Taroudant with its elegant Moorish Dar Baroud Palace, or crossing over the Tizi n'Tichka pass, a three-hour drive from Marrakesh, into the picturesque "casbah country" with its fortified villages built of clay that melts like chocolate in a heavy rain. Or they may spend the day shopping in the souks of Fez or Marrakesh, haggling for bargains in brightly patterned Moroccan rugs, ornate silver jewelry or silk brocade caftans-the flowing, T-shaped garment...

...form jamming. If you put any bunch of talented musicians on stage and have them improvise for an hour it is inevitable that they will get it together a few times. For all that, it is clear that progressive rock is not instantly exalting the way supreme unvarnished rock 'n' roll (Beatles, Stones, Hendrix, Who, etc.) is. Rather the Grateful Dead came into their own as superb environment musicians--when the environment is right, for example, on the grounds of Columbia for free during the insurrection.
