waxbanks The moment at roughly 13:26 on the common AUD when everyone seems to THINK Trey's about to break 'The Note,' and he falters but sssssssssssomehow holds on for just a few more bars until finally SLAMMING back into the mix...that moment, right there, where everyone in this like world-historically lucky crowd just LOSES THEIR MIND together...man, I can't get enough of that. The music is excellent, Fishman (as @DrSFJones points out) enters a wildly inventive fugue state, but for me the best thing about the AUD recording is how clearly you can hear energy being passed back and forth between players and audience. In a (perhaps; perhaps not so) unconventional sense, it's a 'spiritual' moment, and if you can't exactly be a part of it now that it's (whoa) nearly 20 years gone, I think that with an exercise of empathy, which is to say a certain species of imaginative generosity entered into as an act of faith, you can have a kind of parallel experience here, too. Or maybe all I'm saying is that this music lifts me up so high I can't believe it's only music.

DrSFJones This is a ridiculously great Hood. Fishman's playing during Trey's 3-minute sustain is text-book bad-ass mo-fo.
