Review by DemandOpener

DemandOpener Like a lot of the shows from 1988, this one sort of is very samey to all of the others. Essentially, there's nothing here that can't be found elsewhere, which is why I suspect there is a lack of reviews for this show.

The Foam from this show makes an appearance on the Jam Charts, and I don't really know why, because it sounds pretty tame to my ears.

There's not much to say about the rest of the show (even the YEM is pretty standard!), but I will mention that the Bag -> Possum segue is neat, and the Bowie and Antelope are HOT as per usual. Bowie, Fire, Possum, and Antelope are a few of the songs that you can always get an explosive jam out of in 1988. If you like those, you'll like these.

3.5 stars

Review by thelot

thelot Aside from the vocal flub in Fee this show is well played. The recording itself isn’t great but it’s an enjoyable listen.

A couple notes from the show…Weekapaug featured a cool groove jam before kicking into ‘Paug proper. I believe this is the very first time we hear the infamous Wilson chant. It may’ve appeared at Hamilton College (11/5) but unfortunately that intro to Wilson is cut. Set 2 cuts into Alumni, unfortunate because this is a great version with some additional lyrics! AC/DC starts with no introduction. This segues nicely into Possum for the first time since Beecher Hill Farm (5/15). There was more than a handful of beautiful Bag->Possum segues from earlier this year and throughout ‘87!

Another solid Western Mass performance here! Don’t sleep on this one.
