Chris Robinson Brotherhood 2015-06-25 San Francisco, CA


 

The Live Review:
6/26/15: Boppin' the Blues opener. Neal tearing it up on slide guitar.  
6/26/16: Never heard that cover before, but I dig it. Roan County Banjo next.  
6/26/15: I love how Roan County Banjo just sort of opens up naturally after the lyrics.  
6/26/15: Badlands Here We Come is one of the band's catchiest songs for my money.  
6/26/15: Hog For You follows Badlands.  
6/26/15: Neal laying down a great blues solo while the rest of the band funks out lightly underneath thim.  
6/26/15: Chris gets a harmonica solo and now Adam is taking a particularly spacey synth solo.  
6/26/15: Jump the Turnstile! Liking hearing all these Phosphorescent Harvest-era songs (on this and the new vinyl).  
6/26/15: Love the outro on Jump the Turnstile.  
6/26/15: Vocal outro that's not on the studio version of the song.  
6/26/15: Star or Stone next. Probably my favorite CRB song currently.  
6/26/15: Great version, as usual.  
6/26/15: Meanwhile In the Gods...  
6/26/15: Brief little ambient jam after Meanwhile.  
6/26/15: Slinky Pink Floyd-style jam coming out of that brief interlude.  
6/26/15: Some great two-guitar interplay happening here.  
6/26/15: This is great. Guitars getting absolutely nuts.  
6/26/15: As things settle a bit, Adam adding electric piano and clav touches.  
6/26/15: Nice wind-down > Tulsa Yesterday.
6/26/15: Jam out of Tulsa Yesterday so far following the (awesome) template set by the studio version.  
6/26/15: Mellow, shuffling jam emerging now.  
6/26/15: Jamming now around the Tulsa Yesterday riff.  
6/26/15: Hundred Days of Rain. Love this tune. They're including a nice little breakdown jam at the end, too.  
6/26/15: Beggar's Moon.  
6/26/15: Chris really bringing it during the Beggar's Moon vocal outro.  
6/26/15: Noodly little outro > Shore Power.
6/26/15: Got Love If You Want It. Adam going to town again. Love the sort of lurching nature of this tune.  
6/26/15: More harmonica heroics as the beat builds.  
6/26/15: The shuffle continues with the first song of the encore, a cover of Johnny Cash's Big River.  
6/26/15: Catfish John is the second half of the encore. Love this tune as an encore.  
6/26/15: Overall, a songy-er show from these guys than I'm used to, but a really great mix of tunes and solid playing throughout.  
6/26/15: The Meanwhile >Jam bit was the clear highlight. Tulsa, 100 Days were also both great.
