Whipping Post (12:34)
|
1989-05-13 | Whipping Post | Syracuse, NY | 12:34 | The second jam, which begins around 6:30, is very improvisational. Following some mellow Trey and Page-led grooving, the jam builds energy, launches into deep outer space (seriously), then returns to "Whipping Post" with strong Mike and shredding Trey. |
|
SOAMelt (8:57)
|
1992-05-09 | SOAMelt | Syracuse, NY | 8:57 | Creative version with an unusual (for this early period) shift to major mode in the jam, followed by dissonant playing and some incredible trilling by Trey near the conclusion. |
|
Tweezer (14:23)
|
1992-05-09 | Tweezer | Syracuse, NY | 14:23 | Trey hits on a cool theme in the jam that is repeated a bunch with Mike. Excellent pre-94 version. "DEG" teasing from Trey, Mike and Page. |
|
Bowie (15:12)
|
1994-11-04 | Bowie | Syracuse, NY | 15:12 | Great tension and dissonance combined with moments of melodic beauty and calm. Like one of the big November '94 "Tweezers" with many movements, and all packed into a 10 minute jam. |
|
Weekapaug (10:27)
|
1994-11-04 | Weekapaug | Syracuse, NY | 10:27 | A '94-style funky breakdown jam leads to a spirited "CYHMK" jam before returning to "Weekapaug" for a high intensity peak, with a great "CYHMK" ending. |
|
Winterqueen (8:57)
|
2016-07-10 | Winterqueen | Syracuse, NY | 8:57 | After a thoughtful, contemplative start, the jam gains momentum, moving into a faster paced, uplifting section with great, clear playing by Trey, and solidly grounded by Page. |
|
Martian Monster (9:48)
|
2016-07-10 | Martian Monster | Syracuse, NY | 9:48 | > from "Rocky Top". It's another "Martian Monster" rotation jam! One of the longest versions since the debut sees Trey hop on the Marimba Lumina, Mike on guitar and Page on bass. Straddling both playful and serious, this jam culminates with all four band members singing/hissing/shouting "Your trip is short!" as Page's sample echoes the same thing. > into "Golgi". |
|
KDF (18:46)
|
2023-07-23 | KDF | Syracuse, NY | 18:46 | Firmly in the conversation for best "KDF" to date, this version diverges quickly with a driving, upbeat jam which then becomes more textural and hard-edged after 9:00. It then reverts to major for the stretch run to a strong peak which Trey hammers home with a memorable melodic hook. |
|
Tweezer (27:53)
|
2023-07-23 | Tweezer | Syracuse, NY | 27:53 | Begins with a brief major tangent but then reverts to a typically rocking "Tweezer" jam, albeit in a different key, then finds its footing again with a segment anchored by Trey's off-kilter, cyclical lead. From there, it builds more conventionally until the main riff returns, seemingly to bring things to a close, but the band really makes a meal out of this denouement by running through different permutations of the "Tweezer" theme, reintroducing Trey's mid-jam riff, and closing with a Moog-ified final volley, then -> "Oblivion". |
|
Oblivion (20:58)
|
2023-07-23 | Oblivion | Syracuse, NY | 20:58 | The second leg of a mammoth 1-2 punch following "Tweezer", "Oblivion" proves to be a prime vehicle for synth-drenched improvisation. A late-night, portentous atmosphere persists until the pivot to major shortly after 11:00, bringing to bear an encouraging blissful payoff. |
