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.

heady rarities abound. For one thing, Jerry interacts with the crowd with a cheerful "how y'all doin?". Then we open set 1 with a firebrand PITB. Big stuff at this show man. love this era a whole lot.

Bringing the goods. Definitely one of those late 70's shows where keith is so fucked up he cant tell his right hand from his left. Not much good playing from him tonight
