Review by kevinAreHollo

kevinAreHollo I've been obsessing over this Divided Sky since a local tour rat taper guy gave me a single cassette with 80% of this show on it back in '93 or '94.

There is a rawness and fire to the outro that I simply haven't heard matched by another (10/31/94 comes pretty damn close). The band plays with the tonic/modal center of the jam, Trey screeching into and out of dissonance, Mike sounding like a bebop horn player chasing the upper register of his instrument. Fishman is a freight train. I know some don't care for the electric piano but I love how it cuts through the noise and Page can jumps back and forth to the organ with each crescendo.

There are longer versions of Divided Sky. There are tighter composed sections. But none of them move me quite like this.

Time to add it to the jam chart!
