Going to go ahead and give this one a five, if for no other reason than to boost that average rating - this is filled with absolutely *fine* music.



Set 1 - who would have predicted Touch > Scarlet? It sounds as good as you think - rest of the set dialed in A++, from the crazy psychedelia of Rooster to the electric fire of Let it Grow, this is one for the books.



Set 2 - pre-Drums is one of those jaw-droppers. There's a rather *shaky* but still watchable video over on youtube for this set, and it's fun to have context to everything....*dig* the crazy, off-the-cuff feel the first half of the set contains! Post-Space they're a bit of a different band - Truckin' goes absolutely nowhere, but check Jer's solo on Wharf Rat and again on Stones and NFA - the man was absolutely possessed when it was time for instrumentation. The post-Space set, despite these fireworks, still sounds jittery, but that the hell - they pull it off.



A great night with the band - I think that solo in Wharf Rat is easily one of the most sublime moments of this MSG run -
