Hurts Me Too

Pig's vox never sounded better. Pure, fine Blue Ron soul and a rippin' set of solos, but sadly cuts out.

All about the jam. One of the mello raps of the era, and they go off in that way that says "let's do this forever". Why not here?

Sweetness in form and execution. Even the feedback from the monitors harmonises nicely. A gentle, delicate version.

Deep blues, two brilliant harp solos, great Jerry work (duh), and a Charlie Miller cleanup. Listen up!

Deep Elem Blues

Starts a little funny, but has that rare electric funk quality. On the recent C. Miller cleanup, so thank you sir.

Cryptical Envelopment
June 5, 1970
Fillmore West

Fantastic outro from a jamming TOO, right around when they switched from focusing on Cryptical to TOO. This one is a simmering soundscape. AUD phobes should not pass up this one, the whole show is emblematic of the era, and a great representation of what the boys could do in 1970.

But this one isn't relaxed at all. This is hard-rockin' Outlaw Dead. Ballsy vocals and a 1500 cc chopper of a jam. Plus you get to hear Pigpen curse at Bear afterward. Hard driving. Not chill.

Sorry for the double post.

I'm referring here to the Bunjes and Tuete link and haven't had time to go through each version on the Archive. To note as well that the first 20 seconds are an AUD patch, so presumably there's a complete version in B/B- quality out there too. In any case enjoys it brothers and sisters, it's a rare beauty.
