The Palestra, U. of Rochester

Sounds exactly like I am standing next to the guy taping it. Rippin '70 sonic energy.

Plaintive and soulful take that gets nicely bluesy at the finish a fine example of their sound this year.

Wharf Rat

awesome DS watching the Dew now! Tks brother! Ps. All the years have their special color - for me '71 is like a miner's cut of a diamond. Billy unleashed and the band still energetically dangerous.

'71 Rats are a bit like '69 Dews - sometimes ruff but mostly soulful and raw. And once you get a taste for them they're sure hard to ignore. This one's a fine example of just what they heck I'm ramblin' on about.
It's All Over Now Baby Blue

West Palm Beach Auditorium

Oooohhhhh this one has that sumpthin' special for sure easy +1.. My personal fav is 4.19.84 JG's a lil more burned out and there's more fuzz everywhere with Bobby whammy work but it still slowburns emotionally hot like this one here. Check the Miller/sbd for full efffect.
