Caution

Like drinking a pint of Chulola mixed with poprocks or just deep space mining on Saturn. Either way yer f'd up.

Touch of Grey

Hey Greenie - shaggy is right - but endearing too. Check 4/14/84 it's spikey instead of shaggy and almost goes off the rails but doesn't - I love it.

Correction on the date of a previous post (s) - 12/17 vs 12/23 - after a very unscientific study I swapped'em over to the 17th date. Highly urge anyone with a taste for '70 to check out this stellar short set of a crystal recording. I love this crunchy year.

If this were only heard - it would surely shoot up to top 10 status - outstanding with Jerry vocal reverb bonus.

Shrine Auditorium

Ridiculousness - Hear Jer finagle the Mtn jam in here - f'n unreal.
Dancin' in the Streets

Dance Hall

Must be heard - totally Dark Star-esque per the above comment without the speed of other versions but totally sweet bends and phrasing. A real treat.
