Orpheum Theatre

Gives you blisters on your fingers just listening to it. Great second bit coming after drums. Solid if not somewhat overlooked show.

Death Don't Have No Mercy
Aug. 23, 1968
Shrine Auditorium

A bit shorter and tighter than some, but brilliant, and part of an immortal set of primal blasting power.

Takes off on you for a deep and weird ride, then goes into a brilliant "The Main Ten" which just kills me its so good.

Capitol Theater

The boys were in a mellow mood tonight, and this one is the sweet and tearful-cowboy ballad it was written to be.

Moody, pensive, and beautifully acoustic. Like no other. Unbelievably beautiful.

A real surprise and treat after the finger blistering Dancin'. Right now becomes my favorite ever.
Dancin' in the Streets

Swing Auditorium

In as close to a flawless show as this one, the Dancin' really stands out for its incredibly shredding good time vibe.

Woke up with Jack Straw in my mind, came here for this and BANG! Absolutely ripping version. Great stuff.

Faster than others from the era, but never rushed: Finds a really nice pocket and grooves there. High octane indeed.

Has it all. Nice to get into this whole show, not just the immortal PITB.
