Spectacularly drunken entrance to this lean mean blue hot 93 Truckin with plenty of chonky chaw! Five alarm version, stellar concert.

Latter day gem that might be a surrogate memory of peter gabriel solsbury hill. Phil sings and jerry comes alive. sophisticated, breezy, and killing.

Wow.... major LLR with cresting, soaring Jerry leads and a warm, resonant Weir lead vocal. donna's soft voice before the final build is absolutely beautiful. We rarely get to hear it.
