this one is a gimme for Hornsby's jumpstart chops which makes for a devastating affair with jer and the guys lockin' in.

Drums -> Space

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Laconic and textural, devils hang loose. Chasms of endless spirals of blank fear only to be boingy wackjob cyberjazz, menacing, for OG 90's heads

High spirited and activated septet playing. Lengthy tonal solo and manic 7/4 takeoff

Blazing steamroller, Hornsby, flutterbird PITB. Elegant, direct, emblematic of the late style.

Ramble On Rose

Pine Knob

magnificently kickin and emphatic, layered textures and hot weaving. Tailored for fans of the era's mega polished sound. Rhythmically delicious and perfect solo colored by midi trumpet. Nice vocal
Queen Jane Approximately

Pine Knob

crispy ethereal grace and karmically aligned energy. Are you here? Reminds me of lennon deriding harrison's "I me mine" at twickenham for being a spanish waltz, but then he hated everything.
New Minglewood Blues

Pine Knob

characteristically excellent, Phil strumming away maniacally masked in superhero cape, fabulous groove and chaw sandwich with habanero bread flow.
They Love Each Other

Pine Knob

Dynamite year for tleo, tune that blossomed in invigorating energy. Calling for broken ones. Jerry was like don't give vince the hammond sound so he rocks a plinky dink midi with grace typical of brent.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Madison Square Garden
