Utterly gorgeous ... overall, one of the most beautiful shows in history.

Wembley Empire Pool

The surge into Sugar Mags is mighty, the jam leading to it is gorgeous... marries Dark Star-Sugar Mags as tight as any Scarlet-Fire or China-Rider... the Sugar Mags into Caution makes it as great a trio as any Help-Slip-Franklins.... This whole Dark Star is full of mountains and valleys and space and roaring heavy metal thunder and gorgeous jams.... Maybe....

Straight into the Cryptical which is magnificent Primal Jerry!! Another reason why this is one of the best shows ever....

Great for 95. Jerry's voice goes someplace strange and brutal, a place we've never heard before.... crazy weird moment in a kind of a crazy weird show, flows nicely into a robust Let it Grow... Earlier Sugaree has great potential and then falls apart so oddly... weird five song first set...Second set has a sweet Days Between leading to a nice Sugar Mags-Fought the Law.... Goes to show even the "not-so-great shows" had a lot to offer.... Jerry was dying before our eyes, but still playing for his life...
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Yeah. Probably the best. Never ever grow tired of it, that's for sure.....
