This one hasn't sunk in yet. It's MASSIVE. The muddy copy on the archive won't do it. You've got to listen to the whole NFA>GDTRFB>NFA DP 26 version. I've upped it to 5, only. Should be near the top, IMO. Wow.

Thanks for highlighting this. Great period – they're both eager to jam and patient to let it develop…

As chunky as they come, this gets the same extensive treatment as the previous night's Scarlet-Fire. Great strumming from Bob throughout. I was lucky to catch these nights.

Sits in the shadow of tons of votes cast for other songs at this show. I know what you mean though. Many intense NMBs. Check 5/7 Boston.
