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.

A found paradise of a mammoth '84 UJB, replete with D minor hellfire. Shining armor, stallions are gliding into some snow-trodden insanity

Brent Mydland, keyboard wizard and vocal titan.

Surging, clarion version of one of their best post-70's songs, a towering obelisk of swirly song.

Great cold rain. Just majestic, perfectly pressing in all the right places in my sonic field. Jer's voice, and everyone in general sounds great in this show. People are saying it's shot/hoarse, which is true, but the force and inflection definitely make up for this, he's putting it out there tonight in Augusta maine, 84.

Inspired, lean and mean. Burning 80's cumberland. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orRS84sOFPE
