2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

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.

Nice power to this one and very, very similar to my all time favorite of 4/14/84 in Hampton The ending jam is REMARKABLY close - WOW.

Jer going bonkers on his pedal and the transition into Stephen is really cool and then the build is super with a nice payoff.
