crunchy and heavy NFA, pigpen organ fanning, they're locked in as hell on this. Sounds like this whole show is a must check out
The Other One
May 6, 1980
Rec Hall, Penn State U

monster 1980 version, fluid as hell. Brent sounds incredible, as do Billy and Mickey. they've really got the four-armed beast thing down pat on this. Nice and patient Other One, pairs well with a bong rip or two. really surprised this only has 6 votes, the jam goes the distance
