Played a week before the 8/6/71 version, but super hot also. Both versions are a part of Road Trips Vol1-3.

Possibly the best out of this Fillmore East run..listen to the boys explode during the jam, an 8/6/71 contender

Starts off with Pigpen improving lyrics then Bobby and Jerry battle off each other beautifully. Give it a listen!!

That great May 1970 Jerry tone. Electric.

Certainly not number one, but worthy to be listed.

Last one with Pig: A blasting sexy swagger with slow rising force like the Palladium one up top here. Listen past the tape problems and slow start.

Pigpen's voice is deep, SC-soaked and clear. The jam is ballsy and pushing out against the seams.
