Nice jam into "Truckin." Can anyone id the organ lick Brent throws in just before the transition?

Dark Star

Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

This is really one beautiful piece of a diadem sequence. Best appreciated in context.
Eyes Of The World
March 29, 1990
Nassau Coliseum

I second the above completely. Make sure to check out some of the other awesome versions so this doesn't become a runaway freight train of up votes (looking at you, 05-08 S > F).
Drums -> Space
Sept. 10, 1991
Madison Square Garden

Also a nice video of this is up on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ri7o3XwLUmo

Madison Square Garden

Worth a bump. This gets pretty far out there, and there's a lot of great interplay. Better than the other, more famous Branford show that's been re-released lately?
Dark Star

Public Hall

This is the most organic sounding Dark Star. It grows out of tuning into a jam into space into the verse and feedback and subsequent jams without hesitation.
