You know the crew is feeling spritely and in a cowboy mood when they play this, blessed frequently in '89 with it.

Pigpen cut revived for the 90's with the group in kind of a slow crawling king snake vibe. Vince knows how to lay down some organ. Top late form.

excellent, spritely tadpoles on a meltkissed brook. Unique and hot chicago jam to follow. Aromas of Stranger and dancin' blended in with old school Feelin' groovy Tighten up/Hard to handle/Soul vibes. Mesmerizing and radiant passage of virtuosity effortlessly woven into deep groove. Powerfully kinetic.
