Easy breezy with the glinty afterglare of yore. Drifty transition to boot. Nice twilight septet memory making.

Hard hat 92, bluegrass plinky. Alchemical goop-laden improv. bluesy panache.

touching simplicity of row bridges the bullet-train nowness of this ripping bizarre banger. Post-capitalist freako jazz hair metal..

Kickin, super badass with twinkly articulate searing Jer bear. Blue flame yokey shredmeister TMNS.

its a show like this from "Terrapin Station" tour that makes me wish Donna had better monitoring or in-ear, something, to keep up with everyone else in turms of amplification. This is a really nice building type of thing, pretty stuff in 77.

Wow, 16 votes. Stellar and skyrocketing prime 77. Gotta love the vibe of that Betty Board also.

Probably my favorite one of these, menacingly burnin'. 36 is really one of my favorite Dick's Picks, the Spectrum is always a special spot, and you can't go wrong with these 72 selections, there are many ridiculously great versions on this album. Worth multiple listens.

Membrane crazy soloing, and heady improvisation, on this lumberjack, seminal 1977 TMNS!!!!!!!!! The energy and will of the crew can't lose, ever!!!!!!1
