Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Strand Lyceum

Smokin' version aside from the cool sequence of GDTRFB>NFA>Bo Diddley>NFA. Def worth a listen.

I really think this a cool version. Jazzed out in the middle. Tight w/o too much wasted rap.

Smokin' promised land. Super tight. Very under-rated show.

I always loved that they did this. How cool! Check out the awesome stand alone Fire from Egypt out of Ollin Arageed, too.

Ok, I was a little harsh. I have listened to it a few times...for me it has a little too much of non-focused "weirdness," which is not my favorite thing, but I am ok with others digging that. I will give another listen. Love the McEnroe shout out! Almost should upvote for that alone.

Don't forget the best O1 also. The Cryptical reprise is just as mind-blowing. As stated before DS>O1>LL, greatest 90 minutes in GD history.

An amazing O1. It gets Tiger, but always stays focused.
