To Lay Me Down
Crackling with more energy than is typical of the tune and the jams have a spacey little edge to them.

Shakedown Street
Super hot funky lines from jerry and some hot piano from brent a standout way to start the show, FUNKY!!!!

Let It Grow
Another great ripping 1981 Let It Grow, full band jam real hot. Swirling exploring beauty.

Might As Well
A tad abrupt on the ending but a fun one! They played a mighty swell one the night before so they probably figured 'might as well' play it again

Terrapin Station
Even through the murky recording you can hear how delicate, powerful and trippy this version is. Great jam into drums
