Beefy stetson hat workout. Ravishing harp and fun fender deluxe reverb tones.

Not unheard of to go into this after scarlet fire (34 times) still, something of a wacky pranksterish reset. Speedy and powerful version with growl.

Devils come alive. Joy ride to wirepickin' ecstatic oblivion. Furiously active yet not autobahn, deep 80s

Great one. Kits duet is really inspired. Space curdles out with noise but gets jester's hat nightmare with vocal pranks. Beautiful long bluesy intro

Wholly stunning drums coming out of a "ripping", if the word is ok, Dark star that could pass for some '72, it's that good. A heroically probing and inventive Midi space too.

Whopper, astrally-minded jamming on 1991 Dark Star. Version from the "Views from the Vault II" show, alongside a crispy palatial Estimated Prophet and a transcendently mired hirsute, lorn, transitive diamonds Drums/Space with lots of Mickey Hart talkin' jive. As for the DS, it's totally far-reaching, expansive, astral new horizons.

Exemplary helpslipfranklin at the start of set 2, June '91. Twinkly, crystal-clear, snappin'. Space-yer-face slip.
