this one is a gimme for Hornsby's jumpstart chops which makes for a devastating affair with jer and the guys lockin' in.

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Laconic and textural, devils hang loose. Chasms of endless spirals of blank fear only to be boingy wackjob cyberjazz, menacing, for OG 90's heads

High spirited and activated septet playing. Lengthy tonal solo and manic 7/4 takeoff

Blazing steamroller, Hornsby, flutterbird PITB. Elegant, direct, emblematic of the late style.

Madison Square Garden

earns the upvote. Classic wavy grooves. Does not depart from the initial pulse but calmly gets more frantic if that makes sense... Clearly everyone is focused and wants to have a great show at msg.

Feels like a debauched rim dip poke warts and all, in the spring tour scene. Whole show is mega articulated and precise, Jerry turns it into a sorority rally with smile smile smile!! Never too fast but still brimming with the conversational politeness that yields that pleasant platitude of a nice dead jam, what song is this
