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

Shoreline Amphitheatre

High spirited and activated septet playing. Lengthy tonal solo and manic 7/4 takeoff

This show is totally incredible, a magic and sparks filled 3 night run for the dead. Foolish heart and Box o'rain from this exemplify the dead, and the best deal ever, of course!
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Nassau Coliseum

I now realize that i erroneously submitted "the first US blues" from feb 74, when there are actually several important 73 versions under the "Wave that flag" set of lyrics. Burning x1000, uber.
