That's how you open a set and start the party. Bobby's in full command, Donna tight behind him, Keith blazes like a sparkling meteor. Hot stuff

Headyversion doesn't have a "Seastones" page so it'll have to go here. Super subtle and very weird: Not everyone's soundtrack but it's one of mine!

Strap on headphones (AUD quality) and forget about the manic screaming. Listen to Keith, you won't regret it.

Blazing hot. Don't be put off by the AUD quality. Strap on the headphones and go. Brilliant.

Archive is down due to some wack hackers, so only able to watch and listen to the video on YT. This version is full of joy and triumphant, but I can't help but wonder what better sound quality there might be out there. Ahhh, we're spoiled, but the archive giveth and the technodipshits taketh away.... Maybe it's time to dig out the old downloads.

Upvote for Phil's clear sweet baritone.

Tight short tweeky feedback to close out the Caution jam in top form. Everyone sounds in on it, including rare Tom. Fun stuff that sounds very freaky even now, 50+ years later.
Caution

I don't always think "coherent" when I think of Caution. I love it for its out-of-control spinning like a lopsided top, but this one is a strong singular statement of intensity and hard shredding before it tips over into tweaky feedback. Like the Dark Star earlier in the set they seemed to hold it in throughout this killer set, and the result is tight, strong showing of the legendary '69 sound.
