Turn On Your Love Light

This one's got it!!! Great, as far as post-pigpen goes... Supported by diehard bobby energy and robustly happy mid 80's glide.

ron dials in!! The bygone days of slingin' Chess 45s round the room. Crackling with passion and effortless heavy groove

Crowd congeals on this one. Unstoppably creative phil, they go deep into the caverns of cosmic deaad, colombian antics and deluxe goodz.

The Other One

more Aries szn love from a special year definitely pointing to the "culmination" of a sound, like 78 most recently before it. This show gets into a big Playin' and Wharf with a nice Big railroad, Althea, Stranger before.

Truckin=nicely done, phil masterclass. Black peter... trembling with brown acid-laced "why hast thou forsaken me" deathbed solitude and despair... all versions are awesome to me. if you must know
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance

Aladdin Theater

Great drums melt, so much strength is implied and the mood is always romantically in pursuit of the next thing like dragonchasing lily-caped phantoms. Another Kurosawa arm wrestle of an S/S.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 6, 1984
Aladdin Theater

Blustery party time and at a certain sunkissed angle, extremely evocative. Really faithful and architecturally sound imaginings of deeply loved and played material in Vegas on the spring 84 run
Hell in a Bucket
April 6, 1984
Aladdin Theater

Narcotic but with a guiding kind of variety show sleazeball vision, the screaming vocal offsets this one's potential for a real sleep paralysis demon of a doozie sleeper 4.0 bucket but the thing Rips.
