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.

Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance

Rec Hall, Penn State U

really locked in on this. The lost sailor is just beautiful, Brent's rhodes playing is magical
The Other One
Oct. 21, 1978
Winterland Arena

short but absolutely shredding. You'll seldom hear them get as nasty loud as you do at the climax of this TOO. And seamleassly goes into the best Stella Blue ever, to boot.

Yale Bowl, Yale University

Pristine early UJB. Pig on that tambourine is super nice....
Sugar Magnolia

Auditorium Theatre

Great take cucamonga. I love 71 Sugar Mags when the boys would sing the verses in harmony. This one's a heater, Billy having a field day
