Bird Song
Oct. 8, 1984
The Centrum

Damn, here I am commenting on this again?? This a sick, psychedelic Bird Song with Bobby leading the charge. Breaks down into pure space in multiple places. No wonder they didn't play Dark Star back then, they didn't need to.

Fantastic jam into The Other One. Phil is brilliant.
Ramble On Rose

Civic Center

Keith sounds amazing on this. Love the little lick he plays after "Just like Jack and Jill." One of the best versions I've heard

Scary jam demands that you pay attention. You can't run away from it.
Might As Well

Colt Park

So cool that they go into a loose jam out of this tune. Bobby is def playing Wang Dang Doodle.
