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

Meadowlands Arena

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

slept on this one! It smokes! this is a chainsmoker of a whisked, aromatic spicy crock-pot delight. Devils hit deep mellow groove immediately, canvas is perfect, everyone gets to work with angelic grace.

this version paints a Rembrandt of the infinity of matter. Seminal. At over 30 minutes before becoming space, it is a billionaire deluxe experience of groupthink cruising through galaxies with urgent authority. magical version. I am surprised that this doesn't come up every time when talking about the best. Stands with any version.
