Yeah I'm doing a concept album dissection of this with my class and I'm enjoying it quite a bit. The last four movements in particular are just so... damn... good.

@yoyo honestly don’t go in order because their early stuff might ruin their later stuff for you

well I was higher than anybody should ever be at that show so I don't remember a lot but I'm pretty sure they killed it. way jammier than I expected, if my memory of You Got Me going for 15 minutes is actually accurate in any way



also Talib was solid, he played Respiration by Black Star which was all I really needed

I'm in love with this record man, might be my favorite one by these guys to listen to front to back. I fucking hate the vocal feature on The Lighthouse, but everything else is so fucking nice, and even that song is nice barring that horrible feature
