The Music Never Stopped
March 28, 1994
Nassau Coliseum

This song was usually played quite well in the 90's. This one is huge at 9 mins with a hot final jam!

Tighten up sequence right into the Jam! One major aspect that makes this DS heady!

This song became one of their best songs since Jer starting reprising the "Be with you'" in 1993. This one is killed too.

Grendel, I respect your thoughts bigtime. I guess it does depend on how you like your Playins. I know we both don't dig nonsense noise in DS's and Playin's. I will listen to 2/26 again and and evaluate it on an elegance level. With that being said, I did say it was the highlight of Set 1. Thanks for your analysis.

Different beast than 2/26/77, but 39 minutes of goodness. The 6 minute build up to the reprise is golden and then just pounded home with not just power chords, but some cool playing by Jer. I can't believe Grendel hasn't commented...he is usually like don't forget the reprise. I will await his thoughts on this one after just commenting on 2/26/77.

Its a nice version, but just a warm up to the May/June versions.

Super tight for first time played. Great quality sound from the link. Pretty hard not to really dig this tune.
