He's Gone
May 10, 1980
Hartford Civic Center

Jerry and Brent going off the rails in the outro jam and shifting major. Sounds more like an Eyes of the World jam with a slowed down shuffle.

Unique outro jam as they figure out how to segue into Comes A Time. Yep you read it right, bet you never thought those two would be paired

Phil and Vince absolutely on fire on this one. Cycling through many MIDI tones. Outro has a nice fusion jam with strong slinky Phil leading into Drums

Terrapin Station

Kiel Auditorium

Incendiary improv. Completely breaks away from Terrapin into type II bliss mode (sorry, but not sorry to use Phish terminology)

Standout version with an extended marimba intro that's a dinosaur stomp if I've ever heard one

Drums -> Space
March 18, 1995
The Spectrum

1995 is probably the best year for Drums > Space and this one does not disappoint. This is a very syrupy, gooey affair that drips into a pretty coherent two chord spontaneous composition. The MIDI is out of this world near the end. When Jerry is playing a woodwind-like sound I'm stoked. Enjoy.
