Why isn't this here? Cippolina chips in to make this a unique, and fully voiced Peter.

Insanely huge Jed. This is where this show really starts to take off

MONSTER two-keyboard version, with Bob just nailing it to the wall emotionally.

My first trip to The Station. The massive post-song jam had me mesmerized.

Whoa. This is a rip-snortin' version. What was it about this tune on this tour? Primal and perfect music from the original quintet.
Victim Or The Crime
Dec. 31, 1989
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

I love this one. It's a NYE monster! Right into Dark Star's West Coast return. Great Show w/ Bonnie Raitt.
Bird Song
Aug. 12, 1972
Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

How is this one way down here? Fully jammed out version. Spacy, jazzy, almost Dark Star-ish...precursor to Veneta 15 days later...
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
July 26, 1972
Paramount Theater

This is a high-energy version from a tour that gets a bad rap as being "too" laid back. Ummm...HUH? Listen to Bob lead the charge on the transition and Phil's high harmonies during Rider. Too mellow? Nah, yo. This one really gets cookin'.
