Phil and Bill sound like a runaway box car in an Appalachian mine! Heady interplay during the solos.

Cool chording from Bobby and a very restless Phil during the verses, then Billy and Keith fire off the jack hammer at the end of Jerry's lyrical solo.

This one is pretty unique for a song that didn't change much night to night...

Excellent version highlighted by a very jittery Billy with lots of ghost notes on the snare! Slightly botched ending, but otherwise great...

Billy really steals the show on this one...tosses in a variety of grooves, all to great success.

Wow...one of my favourites now!

Very fluid and smooth as opposed to the usual clang and bounce. Haven't been this captivated by a 'Rose' in quite some time...

Really moves like a single organism. Bobby's vocals are heartbreaking.

"Stunning" is the word indeed, Cuse. What a show of confidence to open with a pretty complex song like this, and they nail it!

Psychedelic jazz cowboys indeed! This whole box set is awesome.
