Check out the totally mad vocals. Someone's belting it out, and it ain't Donna! Out of a killer Dark Star.

A long deep ride: Inter-stellar collectivity with deep-space weirdness after 1st chorus.

Beautiful ensemble playing. Jerry and Donna harmonise nicely.

The boys push behind Bobby like the posse chasing the narrator of the song. You can hear the hoofbeats. Excellent.

Soaring. Jerry and Phil in collective consciousness. My version is marred by a rough AUD patch though.

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.
