Jazzy, speedy and energetic...but don't let the grimey SQ deter you...this is worth it!

Manor Downs

Mournful and Triumphant all at once. A mind-crushing outro by JG...best of the '70s IMO.

The extended jams after "stronger than dirt" have some of their best interplay ever
Playin' In The Band

Coliseum Stadium

This Playin has an absolutely insane meltdown and the transition leading up to Wharf Rat is really sweet. Phil is outstanding as well...what a great version!

Campus Stadium, UCSB

These first Scarlets are so effing tight and packed with energy!
