So perfect, it's hard to believe that people could improvise music like this together. This amazing show deserves a clean-up!

Overlooked: Between one of this site's favorite HCSs and one of its favorite Dark Stars is a perfect, articulate, and virtuoso version of Big River.

Just outrageous. Problematic show b/c of mix and cuts in the source. Not here: just a blizzard of jam.

Show is overlooked b/c mix problems, but they're absolutely on fire and this version shreds like all get-out. Call C. Miller for this one please!

Could be massively heady, but Billy is so high in the mix that it's hard to follow others. Any cleaner versions out there? Has everything but the mix.

Nice long ride. Up and down, squiggling peaks followed by blissful space, followed by further peaks....

Just amazing. Where's the rest of the show?

Nice but incomplete. We'd be grateful for any link to a full show during this amazingly dead month.

The meltdown shoots you out of a cannon like surpise ayahuasca after the deceptively mellow vocals.

Short and sweet. Really mellow vocals followed by a shot-out-of-the-cannon meltdown right into a great Eyes.
