2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

Heard this today on Sirius - love this show and this LL rips. At one point there is some super hot slide action ta boot - this here does not disappoint!

Late to this funky party but whew - I’ll take a side of xtra nasty sauce with my funk sandwich and it still will not taste anywhere near as good as this….

Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

Bobby all over the mushroom inspired whammy work while Jerry keeps it real and go's for it with a very macho attitude. Gem.

The Spectrum

This is a great, tightly, loose Aiko just the way I like it. This entire show is super well played and the mix is dialed in!
