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.

Goes sightlessly past all known stratospheres, the alignment of the collective bright glare. can lose yerself and still there is enough conversation and coordination so that some factor is constantly in a brilliant motion. It's the same for any time this or any song is really "ON", or at "The it" levels is simply that it beautifully takes the risk of straddling the line between the head and the heart, and at its peak is the fulcrum of the threshold of both experiences!
