What Are You Listening To RIGHT NOW? -- Part 10
That 37 minute jam streaming on his website. Visually not that exciting watching the control panel, but classic electric Neil. If you've given up on that Buffalo Springfield reunion tour, why not take the Horse back on the road?
Jerry walks out on stage 1 hour before the show and plays with his Midi effects for 45 minutes, gives the crowd a wave and walks off. 15 minutes later a killer show starts and ends with this UN-freakin'-believable sequence:
Space>Miracle>Death Don't>Sugar Mags
The Death don't is the best of the modern break-out, imho.

Tremendously Fascinating.
Sacrifice, xo.
A 700 class for sure.
I love you Neil...so much
so, so, so much
so much...
Thought I'd give it a listen before it gets pulled from the Archive, Not bad at all. I was wanting to hear it before deciding to buy a subscription. This was the show that was described as the rowdiest ever (Altamount doesn't count, the Dead backed out).
You can definitely here Jerry trying to fathom just what the hell is going on with all the fighting & drunkeness & bad drugs. His vocal on Bertha really stands out with this line:
"Try to see what's goin' down, try to read between the lines"
I think the band just about couldn't handle what was going on right in front of the stage (and all over the place) and they all just concentrated on playing their instruments well & mellow. That is why this show is so good. They were trying their best to chill people out.
If you did the 90s like I did, you saw things getting out of hand, but, apparently, not like this show.

Jam into Cortez the Killer, as it turns out.
