High Time

Civic Auditorium

Understated and subtle. This is a mysterious beauty. Not for the AUDphobic, it has some sound/tape issues.

Don't overlook it b/c of a few tape quality issues. This is fundamental '70 Dead and Pig was in fine form.

Fillmore East

Relentlessly pulsing at a full shitkickin' clip. A few tape speed issues, but whatta time. Excellent.

High heat, though the levels are set really low and it sounds muffled. Sounds like Pig was playing a Hammond B3 that gives it the extra horsepower.

Turn On Your Love Light

Family Dog at the Great Highway

The rap gets good and weird, and there's some funny doo-wop backup vocals around minute 17.

Hella great energy: Just savage at the transition point from LL>Sup, and Bobby tears it up like his life depended on it.

New C. Miller cleanup makes this an fun-fest, even if they just can't seem to get the monitors right....

There's another funky electric version on the recently posted Charlie Miller cleanup of 23 December 1970, which is different, but also freakin' fantastic.

gdtrfb Era E: Is this the same as the dubiously dated 17 December 1970 on the Archive? I don't have the Family Dog stuff. If it is, it's freakin' hot stuff.

The Matrix

Questionable date, but unquestionably awesome. Should be much higher - and the alternative date (October 4, 1970) proposed by some commentators on the archive is not up here - so listen up, heads, this one is the goods.
