Assembly Hall

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.
