Ballsy and rockin with great energy, flows from HCS and then seamless into a great TOO. It's what's great about Truckin.

Sounds like Phil has ten extra fingers. Time furthur out... way out.

Just great. Fun, fast and tight: like a good horse race, after all.

Short and tight, follows a monster Bird Song and develops this great show's great energy.

Lifts you off the ground like an ocean wave: A beautiful, buoyant, Phil-driven jam.

Ship of Fools

Jerry belts it out with power, puts real oomph into it.

Good and weird. Starts spacious and open, then goes bananas. Not in the hard acid shot-out-of-a-cannon sense but in a more experimental peak weirdness way. Seems like they either forgot about the first verse altogether or figured they'd already ridden it as far as it'd ride.
Samson and Delilah

The whole show is extra loose, and this is no exception... but it flows like a room full of bouncing pingpong balls and grooves with great butt.
Dancin' in the Streets

Part of a great run of '76 versions, full of experimental jams, wild turn-on-a-dime grooves, and funky funky funk.
The Wheel

Glorious. It moves with the spinning grace of the big wheel and the small wheel too. The Devils give it a pulse while the guitar landscape rolls past and you're dozing in and out of a dream, comfortable in the back of the bus, the road unfolding before you... on the road... sunshine through the window... just a little more ground.
