this one is a gimme for Hornsby's jumpstart chops which makes for a devastating affair with jer and the guys lockin' in.

Drums -> Space

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Laconic and textural, devils hang loose. Chasms of endless spirals of blank fear only to be boingy wackjob cyberjazz, menacing, for OG 90's heads

Uncle John's Band

Shoreline Amphitheatre

High spirited and activated septet playing. Lengthy tonal solo and manic 7/4 takeoff

Blazing steamroller, Hornsby, flutterbird PITB. Elegant, direct, emblematic of the late style.

Playin' In The Band
Aug. 24, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

earns that upvote. More groups should use bass as a lead instrument. Just sublime how much of the veneta magic is here, (this is probably even more true of the surreal, spooky dark star>dew) especially after listening to the 8/27 playin and bird how this playin ebbs with the same episodes of propulsive jazzy ballet and watercolor pentatonic ambient space. Powerful.

Hamlet mode indeed. Portal gun alligator work. Virgo season love all around, the trademark composure, solution finding wit.

Sugaree

Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

kindly tho!!! Skittering coiling masters seminar for pre-jam era of sugaree, flirts with that side nimbly here. Kool sugar mag bookend to 3+ hours of monastery-bound, Dharmic focus in tow for beyond.
The Other One

So good, space is like kids eating all the smores and starting to spaz out and make out with each other on a school trip at the raging campfire (devils still going)and they get into some nice operatic inspirations, motivic exaltations before this TO1 snarls in proper and continues to push the envelope structurally. Just as brent was stoking the flames of buoyant, fertile tonal psychedelia after he's gone, Jerry checks into this show big time and sweeps up everything in his all-knowing wake... Delivery's got that punk fury... Perfect to1 just like May 8th. apr 24 earmarked
