Ballsy strut. Donna and Bobby are perfectly in sync, the mix is great, and Jerry's on fire. Check out the Miller cleanup.

Baffling that this isn't here yet. Perfect tight ensemble playing, exhuberence and one idea flowing into another. Great recent C.Miller cleanup too.

Beautifully cleaned up version up now showcases the tight ensemble playing here. Bobby's tone is crystal clear and his fills are a treat to hear.

If you've passed by this show, you're missing out a sweetheart of a Roses here. Check out the new C.Miller clean pane of glass in the window.

New C.Miller cleanup (10/17) brings in the love. Brilliant show opener with everything '76 has to offer: Hot mellow, lyricisms, and DJG at her best.

The second half, after a gorgeous Wheel, is tighter and more energetic than the first part. Sounds like Jerry and maybe the drummers were signalling for >>The Other One before coming back into PITB, which would have been the first one of '76. Instead, they settle into what might be a unique 12/8 jam over a strong 4/4 pulse (rather than reaching 6/8 TOO feeling) before following Phil out of the splintering shards back to the PITB, complete with a blown speaker. Tremendous musicianship, and a stunning reprise, which must have given the Heads quite a spin.

A real beaut. After a introspective and floating Playin' jam intro, this wheel coalesces into a dreamscape, like drifting down the highway between sleep and waking life. Yes, the transition back to Playin' is beautiful, too.

First inklings of what the Disco Dead sound will be start about here. This isn't meant to be dismissive. I freakin' love the Disco Dead.

Peak Bobby+Donna era. This one bubbles on smoothly, slowly kicking up the intensity until it boils over in a triumph of sweet harmony.
