Buzzing and crackling and just a wee bit manic. Early 1st set and the party is raging. Fun and wild.

Perfect fun, with great organ work and the '70 sound. Pig says, "I'd thank you to not use no dirty words in the public" which cracks me up, too.

Fast and relentless. This one has power behind it.

Deep and dark with strong emotional jams. Lots of great Peters around this time.

I disregarded this show for too many years, and I'm not sure why now, 'cause its got the goods on every number. This Dew owns its votes. Listen and love.

It sounds like Keith has twenty fingers. Killer piano work on this uptempo jumper.

Everything about this set just kicks ass. FreedomHaul said it well.

Hadn't listened to this show on the box set yet, and sweet jeezus this PiTB got a big upgrade. Beg, borrow, or rip the box version and be amazed. Any show that kicks of with this kind of monster is going to be very good indeed. The good just gets better.

The SSDD is over-the top. Total balls-to-the-wall jam.
