The Race Is On

War Memorial

The most shit-kickinest version I know. Real swagger and Phil bombs early in the set.

Rochester Community War Memorial

Strong version from a forgotten show. Whole second set on this show is SB, not AUD. Worth multiple listenings, great jazzy jam.

Rochester Community War Memorial

An intense, tight, and blisteringly hot version in a forgotten show. DO NOT IGNORE! Archive is SB, not AUD w/ decent sound. Listen to it!

Listen through the murk of the AUD recording and you find a beautiful exploratory version. Headphones only.

Civic Center

Intense energy and deep exploration coming after (!) a massive Dark Star and a shredding Eyes to close out one hell of a concert.

New Speedway Boogie

Fillmore East

Acoustic bliss and the coolest vocal outro out there.
Candyman
Dec. 26, 1970
Legion Stadium

This whole show is filled with killer '70 gems. And Bobby, Jerry and Pig seem like they were all trying to out sing the other. Rare the show with such consistent vocal excellence. And this Candyman just blows me away again and again.

I dig. Damn. Hot stuff.

Sweet and short with Bobby sounding great.
Dark Star
Dec. 15, 1971
Hill Auditorium

Goes pretty far out, but never loses the intense melodicism and rhythmic driving that characterises this great show. A beauty.
