Totally overlooked. One of the prettiest mid-sections I know of, even if there isn't much of a jam section to it.

Imagine how blown away the freaks were, expecting 'Alligator' and getting this stunning intro into the country Dead.

Really boys? Take the red pill and go back in time to this rowdy show. 2nd ever and Jer nails it after telling the crowd to "shut the fuck up".

Plugged in and slashingly ("thwok! thwok! thwok! thwok")! energetic opener for a rowdy crowd.

Deep sounds from a pivotal moment in Dead History. A treat for AUD lovers.

Keith's musicality on display too. His accompanyment to Jer during the climax is top form.

This one has all the blazing voices in the head on the verge of madness trippiness that the great Estimateds can bring. Bobby's perfect.

This one pokes you in the eye and demands your attention. NOT backgroud music.

From the first note this version just rocks. Jer's all over it on his first solo, which is quite different from other BEW of the time. Lovely "oooh oooh" harmonies from Bobby and Donna, too.

Not only 22 minutes, but 22 interesting, musically exploring solo-after-solo minutes. My new favourite.
