A Shakedown opener is always welcome, as it is on this night at Foxboro. The Walkin’ Blues that follows is sweet as well, Brent and Jerry raging while Bobby delivers some fervid vocals. The rest of the set is solid. But you are not going to want to miss the pre-Drums start to the second half (at 1:01:00). It begins with a late-era Take A Step Back that Healy twists and echoes. Then a massive Eyes Of The World spills forth before reversing the usual course into Estimated Prophet. And the Estimated is top-shelf material with Phil bombing away before segueing into Crazy Fingers that Jerry and the boys spin up into something special. Uncle John’s takes over from there with an adventurous, energy rich jam leading out to Drums. And don’t miss the encore, a definitive This Could Be The Last Time followed up by a lovely We Bid You Goodnight.
