Drums -> Space

Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Billy and Mickey play together like they were a big octopus on this one. 'The Wheel' comes rolling nicely out of 'Space'. Altogether, a G-rated D>P.

An '82 vintage Playin' sandwich that finds the boys playin' in fine form. DP 32.

Jerry really belts this one out. All of the attention to detail that you'd expect in a version from this era plus a good bridge solo.

An enjoyable listen, but most notable, I'd say, for an excellent little peak that rises up like a volcano towards the end of the jam.

They Love Each Other

Boston Music Hall

A good, light and airy version that shows quite well what this song was up to near the end of its first year in the rotation.

Yup, 'Without a Net' proves that a compilation live release can be a great thing.

Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

Well worth hearing. Includes the 'Feelin' Groovy'-themed segue jam and they pull it off very well, as 'Feelin Groovy' segues can run the risk of sagging momentum. This whole show is worth checking out.

Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

In an era of dark supergiants this one comes in as a dwarf, of sorts, but packs a lot in--although it is mostly gentle. Check it out!

Nice tight version from a great show all-around.
Playin' In The Band

Dane County Coliseum

This show is an embarrassment of riches!
