The "Strangers" from this whole run seem uniformly hot, and this doesn't disappoint.

Digging some 1990s spring tour lately. The LIG from this show is obviously magical, but there's great stuff throughout.

Wish they would have nailed the back-to-back premieres, but

Worth a listen to the first Althea on the historic night of Tiger's premiere.

Completely agree!

The opening synth parts sound really cool, and really mark a distinctive break from many of their sounds in the 70s. Does Jerry get some of his ideas about his ideal 80s tone from these colors?

Glad you liked the S>F, and the whole sequence is great. I found the China > Rider here: https://archive.org/details/gd1979-02-03.set1.sbd.fixed-102851.miller.102876.flac16 Beware the huge Phil sound!

Listen to Jerry kick things up a notch during his first solo in "Rider." It's like he thought things were poking along, and definitely revs the engine.
