Very surprised this ain't here. Not just because it's THIS night, but the way it thunders out of deep space...The crowd loved it! Deserves to be here!

Crikey! Brilliant! One of the finest ever stand-alone NFAs.

Ha! Nice!
St. Stephen

Winterland Arena

Super super strong. Robust shredding. Methodical but wild, lumbering but savage. Could be number one stand-alone Stephen of '77... (though close to 5/5). Bonus tracks of Dick's 10, with sick '77 Estimated-Eyes, into rocking Sugar Mags. Reality is, nothing was finer than the finest Stephen-Elevens, as gorgeous and perfect a fit as anything, a marriage equal to Scarlet-Fire, China-Rider.... But this is nice and long and epic and close enough to pretend.... (though Stephen-NFA-Stephen was a great pair, too...! Shoulda done it more...) And Wolf was ridiculous, gave him that raw Heavy Metal lightning.......

The Zenith

Just remembered! This is already released on 30 Trips... but still, Europe 90 Box would be nice....
