Blissful dancealong. As clear a statement of what the good times feeling of the later Donna era could sound like. Nice times.

19 minutes, man it gets weird: whistles, gamelans, melodica solo, bird calls, kazoos, explosions: was every one in on the jam? Anyone remember?

Adrenaline bursting hard driver. Exciting. Jerry at 3:00 solos in all 720 degrees, just propulsive. Give her a spin.

Flawless trance-inducing NFA with a perfect transition into GDTRFB. Note for note perfect show.

Perfect. May have the best vocal harmonies of all of them. Not here because of low-level boards? Try headphones, heads.

This one made me go, "oh damn, whoa". Blazingly brilliantly good.

Nice that the archive version has the whole WRS and Let it Grow as one track. The LIG has a cool little WRS tag at the very end.

Trans out of a killer Truckin'>NFBM Jam is just a beautiful uptempo mandelbrot set of fretboard filigree.
