Very surprised this ain't here. Not just because it's THIS night, but the way it thunders out of deep space...The crowd loved it! Deserves to be here!

Let It Grow
May 1, 1981
Hampton Coliseum

This is a truly ridiculous and smoking hot Let it Grow. Could listen all day. Quite frankly, Let it Grow rarely fails to do its job. So many versions reach an exciting peak. Such a great tune, can be super Heady. This is a great example of why.

Excellent, excellent 80's Dupree!!! Could be a favorite. Seems to me to be about right....

Murky, muddy, prowling blues crawls from an eerie China Doll.
He's Gone
Feb. 18, 1985
Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Exactly. After a high energy first set, this has a totally insane coda of roaring, chanting madness.... followed by an eerie Spoonful and a surging, mellow Eyes (with a crazy Weird segue out of Spoonful) where the energy picks back up strong as they tumble into a rip roaring GDTRFB, with a nice jam into Drums.... after Space, an even eerier China Doll drifts into a very rare Baby What you Want from Brent!
