Promised Land

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

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

Uncle John's Band

Shoreline Amphitheatre

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
Sept. 22, 1993
Madison Square Garden

right in line with the chromatic perfection of all the most extravagantly great 70s ramble solos, this one's pillowy 90's thing does indeed make it an impish, merry jester's hat of a cat in the hat fun version for the nyc peeeeps.... Boy works those lightning bolt FX

Epochal jer performance and fantastic windy, blustery but smooth and elegant accompaniment from the crew, "Heavy Angels"

hot version... lean mean savage takes off a la black throated wind and the rousing closing passage chugs like a battering ram. Succeeding the dizzying throng accompanied by stark lunar ravings of meaty tracks within a fine NFA which at moments spirals into ascendant hillbilly psych to close this spring show.
