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

Drums -> Space
May 11, 1991
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

Uncle John's Band

Shoreline Amphitheatre

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.

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.

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

phenomenal hometown energy, habanero early touch with some great unique lyrics into this icy sphere of mutron glory.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 13, 1984
Greek Theatre, U. Of California

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
