-> in from "Makisupa." Many of the later '90s versions are extended, but don't carry nearly the same punch as those from the '93 - '96 era. Not here though, this one is like getting teeth extracted, one by one and without novocaine: long and painful.
The jam veers away from the normal structure several times, adding tension and anticipation when it returns to "Antelope."
The band still toying with set placement, here, "Vultures" anchors the second set for the second time, and with great results. While a true appraisal will only coincide with the arrival of a crisper AUD (or SBD!), what IS clear is that Trey has grown comfortable playing within the "confines" of the composition's compact form, his soloing crisp and rich with both discordant and melodic variation, and really impressive phrasing.
Weird jam segment and vocal close. (No B&D.)
Versions phish.net's jam charts single out as noteworthy.
The “Rye Rye Rocco” section of Antelope included Page on theremin.
