Lusk Field House - State University Of New York

'71 Losers are the raw, real deal. Biting, snakey leads with a despaired vocal delivery.

Trail dusty and raw with sparky Jerry solo - hot 71 style

Buzzy tightness with some lit fuse jamming.

The jam in this take blazes hotter than most any other - Jer throws an Eww! in there for good measure.

Strapped in for the ride home to witness Great Conjunction in the Northern Sky. Track wasn’t marked but it could be no other than 23 of course. Killer recommendation DStar.

I hear you both! Haha and you’re right Jerry shreds so fucking hard it’s like “wahh?” then wakes up and goes further HAM. Don’t overlook Phil doing his God of Thunder bit either he rattles some skulls here. Not the greatest sources on the board but check the Miller - he’s always tasteful.

Grendel, I saw you originally posted that 10/22Syracuse Straw - check this one out - they take a similarly huge bite out of this version and spit it out. Trust me it does not disappoint! PS. I was in HS and went to that Syracuse show drove up from PA - what a freakin' trip we had.

Whatever they were trying to work out in the CC>IKYR comes together in spades right here for me.
