Beefy stetson hat workout. Ravishing harp and fun fender deluxe reverb tones.

Greek Theater

Not unheard of to go into this after scarlet fire (34 times) still, something of a wacky pranksterish reset. Speedy and powerful version with growl.

Devils come alive. Joy ride to wirepickin' ecstatic oblivion. Furiously active yet not autobahn, deep 80s

Great one. Kits duet is really inspired. Space curdles out with noise but gets jester's hat nightmare with vocal pranks. Beautiful long bluesy intro

Comin' out of Truckin', there are hints of Dark Star and Mind Left Body in this muscular, impatient, constantly evolving, ripping late set jam.

Enough hot yummy He's Gone to lap up for leftovers multiple meals, eye-bulgingly clean and pure 73. F yea
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Inspired high-energy close. This 1984 set is simply unbelievable!

So good, just five musicians with some historically-good chemistry playing their instruments.
