cannonball of a jolt, Eureka neurons of reactors combust as colliding. Autobahn gallop and thrilling lines from all, sparkly rhodes work

starts quite rough but wins it soon after, psychy jamming and crystalline voice leading

Morning Dew
Sept. 18, 1987
Madison Square Garden

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIDBlV44DK0 Basking in this absolutely glorious version of Morning Dew, Jerry's vocals are diamonds deep in the labyrinthine mine of emotional time and space, his scream at 4:43 is where the insanity kind of starts. The devils and Brent right away start matching jerry's level of involvement and they know that it's special even for a Dew. I Definitely needed this. 8:14, legendary too, genuinely shocking moment and the crowd roars, they are in complete ecstasy. Everything in this version is just screamin'. one of those versions I would put on my ultimate playlist

Incandescent spirals of 81 PITB, continuing their 77 motorik/krautrock inspired explorations, this time with a fresh-faced mydland maneuvering his rhodes to push the guys into a frenzy!!!!! Must-listen playing , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvvYChZTXMw
