Jerry Garcia cover, with 12 Pounds of Pain teases |
|
Jam sings out early, develops stationary momentum after 7 min, and grows democratic, squirmy, and kinetic. Guitar steps forward after 11 min and the rhythm section is strong during a peaky surge at 14 min. Band rallies around Jake’s Reuben and Cherise theme to great effect. Jam enters Wayless-adjacent space at 15:45 on SBD. Guitar and piano groove at 16 min, and band plays on a wire after 18 min. Rollicking with crash cymbal, swaying guitar, and piano bar-adjacent vibes as the jam peaks. |

Drums stay the course as Jake pushes out from 8 to 11 min. Tension builds after 14 min with searching guitar and melodic, moody bass approaches James Bond Theme. Athletic Alex groove at 17 min as guitar low-key howls to a peak. Jam rides a wave and froths after 19 min before hitting Sweat Equity melody, but playful cowbell sets up a rhythmic groove after 21 min with Dani funk synths. Jam gets farther out via Dani and Jake interactions. Well-balanced weirdness late in the jam. |

With 12 Pounds of Pain teases |
|
Weaving bass and drums precede a jam built on a Jake rock riff early. Pivots to new rhythmic territory with Clav and organ sprawl. After a near-stop at 17 min. spacey and spare sound develops into a gorgeous, ethereal passage. Return to Here and Now before 23 min is, simply put, sick, mature, and organic. Quick, ascendant move into wrapping vocals is professional to the max. |

Seal cover, With Rubin and Cherise (Jerry Garcia) teases |
|
Open guitar riffing early, turns muscular at 8 min. Chaotic Axilla riff by 9 min as Mike shines and Alex flexes. Pivots to a staccato Clav dance groove with Jake shimmy antics at 14 min. Bedrock bass play as guitar and keys intertwine. Impressively, the band incorporates the Reuben and Cherise theme into the jam from 17 to 21 min, with Mind Left Body themes to boot. Beautiful return to Kiss From a Rose after 21 min. |

Peaceful vibes early give way to shreddy guitar after 10 min and a crashing and marching jam follows. Smooth modulation at 14 min to down-tempo, chiller territory with organ and subtle synths. After some plucky, staccato exploration there's a pivot back to the serene and pretty Lost and Found melody after 18 min. Mike and Alex's rhythmic support as the jam turns peaky are superb. |

Steady rhythmic rock groove early, e.g. 8 min, as Clav shines. Pete Townshend-inspired guitar windmill-sounding strums 9 min as drum activity picks up. Fluid, sustained guitar lead lines turn shreddy and howling on top of the muscular, mid-tempo bass and drums pocket. A minor key, hard rock stretch follows. |
