Whopping marimba-laden, a hot, and wobbly excursion into '84 Space. Luxuriantly gorgeous though threatening.

Jerry lands on trumpet tone, icy keyboards with occasional distortion outbursts and glockenspiel afterglows seep in, glorious tonal colors like scriabin or debussy emerge as jerry aspires to the great cadenzas of european classical and folk vocal musics while curlicuing around this chilling perfect twilight stella. This sequence leaves you awash

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Fugitives madly race abandoning the elderly and young, screaming from yellow-eyed owl raptors in the night on lifeless desert planes. Neoclassical harmony meets impulsively daring brushstrokes into every hinted-at approach to temporal organization finally unleashed. Makes me wonder how many "floor-clearing" scenarios this sort of cosmic provocation happens at shows, just heard about onefor the 10/12/84 Augusta dew. Caped caper jerry and robin shows up with spicy italian futurist plinkazoid once you cant remember your name about to hop off the VW and check urself into the loony bin. 10/10
