Pretty standard show! It does have some gems. The Stranger and Terrapin come to mind. The Birdsong, too. Nice 14 minute version .

Nice version, but Tuscaloosa is still definitive.

Up vote here. Grendel, listen to 3/27/94 Dew...I whine about it all the time. Believe me, it will be worth it.

Fake Grendel...the last few minutes of that jam has MLTB sound to it. I don't think they were playing that yet, so maybe it was something they started working on. 'm not sure, but its so close...its like they just need to turn on the MLTB switch and it would have happened. And yes, u need Rotterdam...It will be the best purchase of your life...I would love to read your analysis of it. It is the most complex DS of all time.

Grendel got me all lathered about this song from his review, so I put it in at decent volume. It is ranked now 7 and is definitely worthy of that ranking. Why Rotterdam is below will always be a mystery to me, but enough of that. The first 12 minutes of this DS is just pure and intense theme jamming. It has about 3 minutes of space nonsense to follow, but not that difficult to deal with. It gets serious tiger at the 20 minute mark, but remains focused and then at the 28 minute mark is the coolest jamming that really has a MLTBJ feel. Grendel.....don't u think that 5-6 minutes is MLTB jam/theme, etc. Really is a super fine DS and has its complexities that make it special.
