Showcases their versatility: Switched mid-way through an electric set into this moody beauty after Phil's amp blew out. Gorgeous.

More like the great '71s than the others from 1970. A hard enough rocker that it apparently nuked Phil's amp, leading to a wonderful acoustic set.

Introduced as a "paranoid fantasy song", but oh so sweet for all that. Perfect rendition.

Part of an epic jam, plus an enormous China Cat tease at 10:45 in a 5-year spell without them. Very interesting groove, too.

For anyone with a soft spot for psychedelic bubblegum, the jam the shit out of this one. Ruff cut in the middle though.

Fast, tight and pure. Jer shreds, Bobby's on, the Devils are relentlessly perfect. This is great stuff.

A nice rocker with a beautiful, soulful jam coming out of the hella-outrageous Lovelight. Great end to an awesome show.

Quinn_76: Check out the Rambler Room show from November 17, 1978 for an amazing short acoustic set that will bliss you quite sweetly, friend.

Sorry for double post, but now I'll just say it. This is the big bomb. Really: this is atomic fire, the melting of suns, the collision of Dead galaxies. Harder wilder more explosive Dead I defy anyone to find.

Am I insane for saying that the TOO and 2nd Cryptical are harder acid metal than anything ever performed by Sabbath or Zep or ??? Jer shreds too hard. Must have really freaked out a few with this scary ride.
