The Other One

Kiel Auditorium

A massive, heavy, rocketship of a performance: Explosive liftoff, mining expedition to deep space, smoking craters, then a long sweet fast ride home.

A beautifully rendered rare treat with a nice emotional arc and sweet harmonies.

Hot building and building jam. One of those shows where just every song rocks. Nothing wrong here...

Great solos, tight ensemble playing kicking of the 2nd set from a great show. Energetic and blazing.

Tight and right. The band is charged up and having fun together. Great energy.

Turn On Your Love Light
Jan. 2, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

Jack-a-Straw is right: this deserves much more recognition. That they had enough energy after the monumental DS>SS>11 to even attempt a Love Light is of course staggering. That they were able to blast through the firmament with a Love Light of this intensity is immortal. Give her a listen and vote her up, boys.
Dark Star

Fillmore East (Late Show)

No doubt about it, 1970 kicks off with a massive massive heady Star, folks. This, as mentioned above, is well under-rated. It's got deep creepy far out lose-yer-mind predatory space craters followed by back-to-your body feather-light elegant whispers, and then there's that brilliant Tighten Up jam. Could go much higher on the list.

Everything you look for in an early UJB, right here.

Something succinct about these comments, demonstrating just what a high standard they were playing at this pivotal new year's juncture. In short: this one rocks hard. Great transition from the Cryptical reprise into a sweet Cosmic Charlie too.
