Comments:

the "row jimmy" is very mellow but somehow it will grab you and pull you into a vortex that creates "mind melt"...the "scarlet>fire" flows as the jam builds and builds...one of the sweeter "scarlet>fires" you will ever hear! "comes a time" appears out of drums and moves along at a slow leisurely pace...very pretty...the sugar mags explodes to close out this fine show!

A very good show with a killer Comes A Time. There's a new Charlie Miller soundboard source starting with Estimated to the end of the show.
