This one's got it!!! Great, as far as post-pigpen goes... Supported by diehard bobby energy and robustly happy mid 80's glide.

Crowd congeals on this one. Unstoppably creative phil, they go deep into the caverns of cosmic deaad, colombian antics and deluxe goodz.

Capitol Theatre

By 76 this song was definitely tested, worn in, so on Slip they seriously just go. Extremely heady youtube of this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEA5zgNk0ec That groove bobby instigates at 10:26, the rippling tidal waves of Mickeys virtuosic cymbal work, phil n bil bombing and crunching and jerry's mockingbird wail, an important early slip in new jersey, franklin's is jazzy immediate and punchin', just resplendent! /// What an amazing sound 76 has, so patient and exploratory.
