Beautiful version after the hard hitting Samson. I love the vocal rap by everyone and then a great 4 minute jam to follow.

The Samson>He's Gone is one of the main highlights of this night. Intense Samson and then a beautful He's Gone!

This one is a beaut.
Caution

Rotterdam Civic Hall

FYI... this show that should be in everyone's top 10 is 25% off at dead.net. It includes an amazing analysis of the 46 minute DS that is spot on and helps with understanding all the themes of the epic DS. This Caution is one of the best, also.

This one is a classic from a classic show.

This DS is not for everyone. I do believe that it requires multiple listens to really respect how complex it is with its multiple themes. I can see after one listen that it may not be for everyone. It does deserve respect in GD lore, though. The first 13 minutes is pure DS theme.
