Powerful, sweet vocals and nice harmonies. Totally overlooked great 1st set on this show.

Keith on a what sounds like a Hammond B3 gives a mad funky vibe. Goes into the Main Ten theme and is pretty hardcore. Special early Keith version.

Solid and grooving with a nice pulse. Keith is still brand new, but fits in beautifully.

Dynamite. Kicks off nicely.

A subtle beauty with a sensitive touch that never gives up its strong pulse. An über-cool slide into Deal sneaks in but doesn't get picked up.

Savage cut in it tho. Mike Lai's soundboard has the last minute, but the AUD just fades out (tape change?)

I come back to this one again and again and just go nuts for it every time.

The immortal Pig Rap. "I gotta bouta dolla and a quarter... You can't buy much for a dolla and a quarter...." And so much more. I agree with Phil (!): This is some of the best Pig out there.

Very hot, very tight, and freakishly good. Perfect transition into a nice Stella, too.

To fully grok this one, you have got to listen to the Dark Star before it. Phil is totally explosive here, and it comes out of one his most massive solos of the year right before it. Jerry then takes his lead and tears it up in the most completely beautiful way.
