  • ★★★★ · Sailor.Saint! · Raspberry Jones · 2018

    Began hearing this around 1988, and still find it massively under-appreciated. Everything feels slowed down, though not at all off - as thought the entire band is rotating at 29 1/3. The part that profits the most from this treatment is "Sailor"/"Saint," which (quietly) remains my favorite rendition of the two-fer. What's lost in the fact that they haven't learned to jam it yet (note the lack of transition between the two), is made up for in the tightness and Weir's lyrical precision.

  • ★★★★ · mix · dewey gill · 2007

    Jerry is nearly absent in this sbd mix,he was a bit hard to hear at the show, too. The toms were also quite loud at the show. My aud.tape is a bit more balanced than this though, and would definately be a better alternative. The aud. tape displays far more energy
