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

The Same Thing

Buckeye Lake Music Center

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.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

ole faithful geyser of scarletfire goodness. Soaked in that party time devil may care energy that a lot of 81 performances have, continued from a rowdy set 1, funky unique melt, fire passes a polygraph and seeps in becoming gaseous, intangibly manic.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

Glimmery speeding ticket 81 china rider. Fluid poseidon-kissed tiger work
Looks Like Rain
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

Greek magic, autobahn rendering of a sleazeball sales pitch, everyone on thin ice in time for Phil oppenheimer rituals and overall kung fu. 60% of the time LLR slaps every time. Snowy and beefy unstoppable pedal/rack sound
Bird Song
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

dark unhinged tunnels of freaky jam on this mammoth lockheed bird
Shakedown Street
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

Slinky down the steps of the greek, escalator of nasty feverish tone, xxxtra helping of grit
