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..

Comes A Time
Sept. 15, 1985
Devore Field

This tune is a universal wholloping avalanche. perhaps befitting of its relative rarity, compare its 65 versions to stella's 323, LLR's 414. Hymnally cratering and astrally amethystically proportional to the gods with verse tiger, Hunter is graveside again but with garcia's roadworn delivery it becomes a bemoanment. Chilling stuff, love mid 80s late set ballad.

inspired cut. The dirty soily side of their seedy americana jamming and interconcert jukebox weaving is essentially resourceful, glimmers in the mine.

phenomenal hometown energy, habanero early touch with some great unique lyrics into this icy sphere of mutron glory.

Propulsive lightning strike of touch betwixt a rapid fire emotively chonky party time scarfye. each member locked in, four limbed beast is windmill treadmilling into complete ecstasy, brent stirring hot phil bombin' up an already great mix. Experimental vaguely cassidy or tmns-y transition stuff
