Horns!! Let it Grow is already on here but the Whole suite needs love. When the horns come in you can't help but smile. Pure and beautiful.

Stunning version. Sung with lots of passion, and during the solo, Jerry lets Wolf run loose and lets her howl. Great version from a great show!

The German audience was hypnotized this night. A deep dive into the void and all that encompasses it. This took me a while to get the first time around, but the more I listen the more it opened itself up. A spiraling descent into ancient archaic realms that the band have no problem traversing. The bands sinks deep into the abyss as the wizardry and magic of the Dead take hold and puts the audience into a spellbinding trance. What a Dark Star. Subtle.

The musical equivalent of an earthquake. Absolute madness. Criminally underrated.

Use this as evidence if anyone says telepathy isn't real. A truly grotesque whirlwind of sound all melding together to create a cacophony of psychosis inducing schizophrenic jamming. I find it hard to truly capture the scope of this behemoth.

Check out this whole jam sequence when you have the chance. Replaying this one for my 4th of July celebrations. Best version by far.
