This is the third and last installment of Dancin'>Franklin's. Cape Cod and Buffalo are both better, but this one is pretty cool too.

Drop everything and go to tapers section now and listen!. The 01 is an instant classic and this Cryptical has that classic 1970 build-up.

Slow long version with nice solo at end. I think this one is so good due to the NFA before it and the smoking GDTRFB after.

This is a more up beat Rat, but gorgeous at that.

I know few of these deserve upvote requests, but as stated above...the transitions are seamless, but this one stands a part due to it containing the power of the preceding O1. It's an intense MAMU. Definitely worth a 3.5 minute listen.

Great show here and clearly the O1 was greased and ready to go for Europe. This one does go in and out of numerous themes/jams.
