Can't believe I'm submitting this. Long and fun drum circle that's notable because our Jer Bear whips out a steel pan and joins in.

For a few minutes wembley in '90 becomes the fillmore in the summer of 1970, the way the Dead just slide into a no-nonsense Big River. Shivers

Jesus Christ, This show is absolutely bonkers. Magical jamming all the way through it, including on this incendiary, very heavy and lurching, angry Viola Lee. This kind of thing is what i think of in reference to this band's "Primal" phase, even though it's technically just after the recording of Workingman's dead.
