Awesome syncopation and rhythms by Phil and the drummers. I listen to many a Cassidy's and this one really stuck out to me for some reason, try it out

This was orchestrated superbly. They were all so incredibly in sync on a lot of tunes this show.

Always been a big fan of this one. Some great climbs and falls all around. Hooray for the Mosque!
Let It Grow

Onondaga County War Memorial

PHIIIILLLLL! This one certainly caught my ear. Crunchy and Phil led. Pretty energetic and POWERFUL! and then into Goin' Down The Road! Woooh! Not often a big fan of "stand alone" LIG's (post 74 really), I think the song stands out more in its whole suite withe the jazzier of the drummers. But two powerful drummers and some heavy Phil got my vote.
