Eerie. this jerry-driven version is mired in the paranoia of imminent doom with the wink of cyberjazz. Reaches a to1-esque crater of solemn peace.

First rate. Excellent group blend, they're ready for the fireworks of the two years to follow

80s are a goldmine for LLR's, this one wirey, lustrous and cinematic.

welcome wink of a heel-diggingly true pure rendering. Spiky and down home like jerry and hunter's best evocations of timeless tribulation and delitez.

Logan roy's choppers on the LI sound of a symphonic magnetic version. Windmilling devils at bulldozer. another house arrest sizzler

does this tour ever miss?!?!... whisked to perfection, the ways they can anticipate each other rhythmically in this very "together" founding fathers lineup is always breathtaking! Top gun maverick midi, Lesh goes hendrix at the peak(s!!) he always loves that hard rock caveman stuff

... Wow dude. :-0 let me slap my vpn on (so as to dissuade the CIA agents who will suck me in for speaking ill of their pretend cornell show) but maybe this and at least a couple of the Passaic NJ shows, the buffalo and boston set 2's are more my speed, go furthur still... Exhibit A this 3min Jerry solo sermon... before a truly propulsive buffet Wharf a la the 6/8 and 10/7 ragers. Firestorm

Date = checked, Piano = ringing out, Mickey = activated, Beane = charged up and ambient ionian glory... Wow! i think they always played just splendidly in rooms like this... think of the % of winterland and fillmore shows are explosively good
