Ballsy and rockin with great energy, flows from HCS and then seamless into a great TOO. It's what's great about Truckin.

Short and tight, follows a monster Bird Song and develops this great show's great energy.

Lifts you off the ground like an ocean wave: A beautiful, buoyant, Phil-driven jam.

The Eleven
Jan. 17, 1970
Oregon State University

Who'd of thunk it? The Eleven can be laid back and chill. Almost a contradiction in terms, but nevertheless here it is. Really special.

Utterly underrated. A minor masterpiece and one of the last Live Dead suites, although the Star alone is a wonder of inter- and inner-stellar spacetime travel. Take the ride, heads.

This, and the next night's are just note-for-note perfect. A beautiful snapshot of perfect '70 Dead.

Hidden gem in a hidden gem of a show. I love how they merge a hard biting, crunchy rock sound over the goofy lyrics. Is it my imagination but is Cosmic Charlie poking a bit of fun at Johnny-come-latelys to the hippie scene?

1970 vocals are top notch for so many reasons. I think this one might showcase Jerry's vox at its young man's best. Beautiful soloing too.
