Fillmore Auditorium

One of the first, and its strong and tight and powerful. Is there a bad show from Dec. '69?

Turn On Your Love Light
July 12, 1969
NY State Pavilion, Flushing Meadow Park

Goes way off the rails with Bobby, Pig, audience members and Phil all acting quite mad. Reminds me of some of the Acid Test recordings. A rarity.

NY State Pavilion, Flushing Meadow Park

Expanding over 14 minutes, this one covers different themes and vibes with great streches for soloing. Low-fi AUD.

Some AUD probs but a glowing, surging perfect slice of '69 Dead. Begins acoustically. A rare treat from under the radar.

Mountains of the Moon

NY State Pavilion, Flushing Meadow Park

Buried in bad AUD murk and hiss, this was the last one ever performed. It's longer, slower and beautiful. A gem for completist collectors only.

Bobby's tweaking! This version is as nice as air.

They're on fire right out of the gate. After a beautiful, exploratory Bird Song they close the set with this psychedelic monster. Damn, but it just grows and grows.

I always loved it when my long strange trip kicked in right about the same time they rediscovered Bird Song again. Fuck this sounds so good. Thanks boys.
