| Dick's Review | Cassidy is exceptional and on Loser the audience really seems to get off although I didn’t hear anything that alarming. Minglewood Blues is consistently a rouser that is getting more and more exciting and in this case is the highlight so far of the 1st set. The remainder of the 1st set confirms this. Shakedown Street is really fine with its bouncy see-saw type rhythm and is one of the highlights of the show. Estimated Prophet is quite long and exceptional being another highlight of the show. Eyes Of The World is also fairly “spicy” but the most intense part of the show is the percussion jam which is jammed packed with heavy slams by Mickey throughout!! And again I have to correct myself: the highlight of this show is without question the intense rendition of Not Fade Away. Another semi-highlight is the exciting entrance into Not Fade Away. In fact it is almost as thrilling as the version from 5-7-79 Easton PA! Black Peter is also very well done. The magic was here for this 2nd set jam which is one of the best! I can’t seem to stop applauding this show: Around And Around is absolutely scorching. |
