At times pretty, at times a little weird, but somewhere past 8 minutes, it's downright gorgeous...

Henry J Kaiser Convention Center

Explodes out of Scarlet...a very dreamy Scarlet. Weird & unexpected, not the let-down some might expect. Not at all. Bob's a bit scraggly though...

Bruce makes this the best of the 90's, from one of their best Garden runs ever.

Prime as Primal can be.... Dark Star goes in and out forever-- Groovy Growling Jam into Other One is great and the UJB Jam is monumental and urgent, gotta listen through the whole stretch, NON-STOP, straight into the excellent Stephen - Eleven - Caution - Main Ten - Caution til they Bid ya Goodnight!!! Not just another Dark Star.... deserves another name altogether.....
