Stays in this solar system, but swirls around in shifting torrents of light.

Probably won't hold much for the older Heads, but I like it.

Hornsby always makes Jerry sing better. Here's the AUD I've been loving: https://archive.org/details/gd1991-06-14.sennME80.wklitz.94371.flac16

Nice groove on this one. I need to check out the rest of this show!

I like the relaxed tempo, and it lets the band get funky. The vocals are (uncharacteristically) good, and Brent is exploring a wide range of sounds and colors that help this version pop. Wish there wasn't a cut in the solo! Nice call on this one.

Hey Grendel, thanks for the recommendation! One of my first tapes was the 7/31 Manor Downs show, so I'm a big fan of the '82 shows. I'll check it out!
