The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Phil just bustin balls all over this Rider with Keith doing that rainy rain rain down thing, Jer biting thru with the dusty gunslinger licks and Billy the Kid driving the action... so good so good - crap now I am going to bury myself in '72 CCS>Riders. ps do it justice with phones.

All Along the Watchtower
