Good lush midi cassidy into this speedmeister jaunty shuffler. Bruce and weir aim high. Inspired smooth flow. Propulsive coda. Zoo wee mama!

Another gorgeous headlong peggy for caves and knolls, formidable 90's new age orb head textures. Rosebud arpeggiation takes off gloriously in solos.

intensely hot pan seared Bruce version. Five alarm chaw with thematic accompaniment and hootenany feelings

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.

Long Beach Arena

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