You know the crew is feeling spritely and in a cowboy mood when they play this, blessed frequently in '89 with it.

Pigpen cut revived for the 90's with the group in kind of a slow crawling king snake vibe. Vince knows how to lay down some organ. Top late form.

definitive 3.0 this chunky and jazzy Wharf. deranged shooting star snarler jog through dive bars

Slaying. Phil bombs. Throat-slicing intensity on the chorus. And the solo is flaming. Perfect early loser
Cumberland Blues

Wembley Empire Pool

the live LP version, from my birthday show. Seminal for this era. you can blast this and just explode into country-fusion craziness!! Quite the version.

Clean, lean, pristine. Chomp on the radiation, the alignment, of this.

We're back in 1973 now, opening the night with a heady Cumberland. Quality is pretty shitty for some reason as others have noted but come on, hot version!!!!!
