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.

I'm going to put this one above Merriweather for Brent bringing on the funk, Bobby's tweaking wah, and just how much it brought me back to what was probably the first Dead song I ever knew by name.

This one swings with great purpose. It builds up and up, and blows up with a nice smooth climax.

Philzone nirvana here. At a couple of points it almost sounds like he's forcing the band into a Supplication jam that never quite coagulates. Other than that, this confirms my hypothesis that the man has ten fingers on each hand. What a monster musician!

I agree that that the Devils make this one special. It has that amped up and kicking on top of the beat feel of the speedy early 80s versions. The segue is smoother than "proper" sounding like a DJ blending two tracks as much as a typical GD transition.

Jerry and Donna like a choir of angels on this one.
