The Music Never Stopped

Boston Music Hall

Baffling that this isn't here yet. Perfect tight ensemble playing, exhuberence and one idea flowing into another. Great recent C.Miller cleanup too.

Beautifully cleaned up version up now showcases the tight ensemble playing here. Bobby's tone is crystal clear and his fills are a treat to hear.

If you've passed by this show, you're missing out a sweetheart of a Roses here. Check out the new C.Miller clean pane of glass in the window.

Might As Well

Boston Music Hall

New C.Miller cleanup (10/17) brings in the love. Brilliant show opener with everything '76 has to offer: Hot mellow, lyricisms, and DJG at her best.

Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

Boston Music Hall

So many brilliant ones, but you're missing a real treat if you count this one out. Particularly strong Franklin's but the Slipknot! is brilliant too.

Bird Song

Rossevelt Stadium

Crunchy power-vibe to this one. Doesn't quite have the floating, mesmerizing effect of some others, but instead a more hard-rocking feel. Special.

Damn right!

This is perfect in every way. I don't know what bug crawled up someone's ass to turn this into a way to talk smack about Pigpen, but whatevs. Pig adds a beautiful mellow and understated whooshing touch behind the perfect harmonies. There's a reason they played it together, guy.

Hearing this in it's total sequence is so mind-bendingly glorious that I can't imagine why it took me so long to get back to this one. What a goddamned triumph to what was arguably the most consistently brilliant tour of their history.

Dude420 is 100% right. This is their farewell kiss-of-weird to Europe. The band was never the same again, and here's a love letter.
