Ebbs, flows & builds! Feels kinda funny to mention after chats of '77 Sugarees and Alaska a week away but this whole show is brilliant!

Terrapin Station
June 13, 1980
Seattle Center Coliseum

Rises from an earthly, eerie place, climbs to a wild, arcane battle. Surreal urgency after ridicous China-Rider-CC....

Holy Smokes! Rages and then gently glides into a hot China-Rider-CCRider-Terrapin.....

Black Peter

Shoreline Amphitheatre

I Will Take You Home is not listed anywhere here and that needs to be fixed. This is a beautiful Peter, coming out of a shred-fest of a Watchtower…. But….. Brent’s gorgeous, heartbreaking ballad is what gets this sequence rolling, with some subtle and profound MIDI work from Jerry. I completely forgot I Will Take You Home was nowhere to be found here. Out of respect for Brent and the band, we should be able vote on our favorites….. It was often the pivot of some very fine shows!!
