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.

Spanish Jam

Carousel Ballroom

absolutely insane '68 Spanish Jam. The lovey-dovey, flower power vibes of the era are thrown out the window and swapped for pure, dark menace. Phil is just out of control on this. Makes me want to check out the rest of the show.

https://youtu.be/-OWi1g8Xz5s?t=1374 Love watching the guys do this one on TV. Harmonies are on point and mickey is going nuts on this version, some might say he's overplaying but i fuckin love it. Jerry's SG tone is perfect.
