Beautiful harmonies and country soul. Brilliant and historically important show.

Playin' In The Band
Feb. 18, 1971
Capitol Theater
First performance ever and it's slower, but beautiful and raw. Bobby sings like a country warbler typical of the '71s. Historically interesting.

Greatest Story Ever Told
Feb. 18, 1971
Capitol Theater
Primordial version, first time played, introduced as "Mickey wants to call this one 'The Pump Man' for reasons of his own." Raw and unlike any other.

Loser
Feb. 18, 1971
Capitol Theater
First Loser ever and the last Mickey show before his break. Brilliant version, hot energetic vocals and that good '71 sound.

Capitol Theater
Dripping with deep-soul. Pigpen's voice at its best. Sounds like honey.

Beautiful and unforgetable Jerry solo jam transition into a killer Wharf Rat sandwich.
The Same Thing

Winterland Arena
Deep and dark Blues roots Dead with a tight and hot jam. All the reasons to listen to '67 are right here.
Dancin' in the Streets

You can get genuinely lost in this jam. Seems infinite while you're in it. As Proud Walker Justin put it, a fine bit of acid rock, indeed.

Tivolis Koncertsal
Opens up in whole new directions suggesting what might have been had Pigpen stayed with us into the next era. A real gem.

Welcome jbrucer, I never heard about any rules of etiquette here other than, perhaps, "don't be a dick". So just be yourself, enjoy the site and share the love. Use it to express yourself about your favorites, and to discover new things while remembering old ones. Cheers!
