Caution

Danish Center

Pigpen drives hard here, harmonica all the way. Early fireball, only giving us a glimpse of what Caution would turn into in only a year!

Really bluesy, love the Guild Starfire sound Jer had here. Flows into a groovy early Caution.

Jazz. Just plain jazz. Keith really shines together with Billy on this one, they carry you away in the nicest way. How the he** is this not listed?

Bill jazzes on throughout the transition, and the jam goes just a little bit furhter than before. Cool version with a laid back IKYR.

Nothing the Dead ever played hits me as hard as this does. You really notice in their playing that they think "this could be the last time we play this together." I really love this version, so elegant and creative in it's passages in this gorgeous and beautiful Dark Star. Total bliss. Did i mention i adore this version?

My favourite Wharf Rat. The AUD is perfect.
