![]() ![]() The boys are hooked the F*#$ up, so much so that by the time they slam into El Paso, they are so overwhelmed with orgiastic joy that it is almost difficult for them to play this tune at a semi-normal pace. Cue the sheer, unadulterated bliss stemming from all members of the band. Yet, the band doesnt segue, because they still have the second segment of the jam to introduce before going cowboy. The enchanting, almost gallop like pace of El Paso is introduced with Keith plowing ahead and leading the band! It's like he was always there, as Jer picks up on Keith's work, hops on and readies to throw a nasty-change-up at the audience (I'm sure). Jerry is just slithering along at a snake-like pace that enables Keith to really dig on and start to feel at home in this here rock n' roll band.įirst verse features some nice vocal work for Jer, with a dissolve into a jam that precedes El Paso. Pre-verse one has Bobby us all over the place, battling with Phil for who can play the odder time signature. This Dark Star has an achingly beautiful, emotive quality to it. Now going on listen number 25 of the week, all I have to say is, Where the sam-hell have I been? I'm flummoxed that I have been missing out on this gem and I fear that some of you might be to!? So, here is a review, my first in a long time: Welcome home.Īnyhow, I was introduced to the 11-15-71 DS>El Paso>DS this week. ![]() It just creeps in and then you suddenly look around in bewilderment, as though someone has played a joke on you, because they're playing China Cat Sunflower! Out of Not Fade Away! Quickly, however, you realize that it was only a tease, a small tidbit for the masses, as they dissolve the theme into a gushing, warm, clear, rivery jam that chases you from the bottom of a grassy valley to the top of a majestic, rocky mountain, and back again! Before you know it, Jerry is bringing in the GDTRFB with those fingers of his and your mind, or what is left of it, anyway, is tossed gently from the eagle's wings into the flowing air. Anyway, he plays it for a measure or two, and before then nobody, even you, don't hear it. But specifically, I want to focus on one of my favorite moments of the jam, at 3:59, when Bobby finds, in the midst of his beautiful higher-register rhythm jamming, that classic riff from China Cat! You know the one that I'm talking about, don't you. I know many people have raved about the NFA that went down on this night in the "center of the world," and allow me to join this group.
