In any other month in any other year, this entire show would be considered a rip-roaring classic (which it is!!). Donna is awesome.

Raw, ragged, savage, pretty darn profound. Almost a Close Encounter out of Space... Always a gorgeous work in progress... Not the best, but....

For sentimental reasons: Maybe not the best, but nice extended out-row jam, overall well-played '80s

Vince really shines here, one of the last really beautiful versions. Like the metaphor of No Peaks... No sense of urgency, just mellow, gorgeous Valleys, which was how it usually went in the 90s....
