Intense and inspired. Devils fire on all cylinders, the beam wonks us thru memory briefly before vaudeville cyberjazz takes grip of dope blump shit.

bound to cover just a little more ground, for only 3rd time, chunky and dancing version, powerful

The approach to this trifecta as a victory lap rather than a bust out of the gate yields an arguably even more rewarding version of the composition. Slip is not a melter so much as a slow burn...

For sure under-voted, it's playing in the band and they go crazy on this one. Returning to the D modal jam from craziness, you can start to see why this is Keith Godchaux's "catatonic" phase, his Rhodes playing doesn't take us as far as say, a Dark Star from two years prior would. But it's still nasty and great. Iconic Donna wail coming back around. One of those PITB's that'll take you through several distinct cycles of mood
