Excellent! Galloping through the continuum, the Gd knew this world like a second skin at this point, inspired architecture from beautiful to ugly

Top-shelf intro, jerry flying across the fretboard in fits of rage, Weir pillows, wharf fakeout and a blue hot Truckin' to follow. phil/bren intensity

softly seeps from a beautiful UJB jam. Mickey's solo is fantastic, crackling with come-hither mystery. Expertly done crescendo to a nasty, short space

huge chaotic version a la 6/19/94. Vince starts pouring some spice in the stew and the rest is history, this one goes from ethereal and jazzy to chaotic to euphoric.

Walker source is screamin'! no hammond again, but another firecracker version. Quite slow and menacing, vocals quaking with desperation. Phil bombs. another fantastic version
