  • ★★★★★ · This is what we all look for- Total X factor-Shines · Liamfinnegan · 2008

    ALthea is all time for this song-LIG is exceptional if not an all timer- and The Chinacat nips at the toes of the maiden, rolling out of LIG- all of it Garcia nails with an otherworldy ease- Smokes through and through- download one of the AUDS yesterday

  • ★★★★★ · Althea alert · unstrucksound · 2020

    The amplitude of the waveform on Althea says it all. Jerry is "playing it sweet," but the ending takes all that mellow energy, focuses it, and builds it into something incredible. One for the ages, for sure. Great energy in the show, start to finish.

  • ★★★★★ · China Rider · Enlightened Deadhead · 2006

    The last 3 minutes of 'Eyes' is like colored confetti, sparkles, candy sprayed over a dark silver cloud. Really playful China Rider. Great Drumz.
