Family Dog at the Great Highway

One of the definitive DS>SS>11 suites and it power rocks on its own. Young'uns: don't forget good '69...fear not and dive in!

Stretches further out than earlier ones, like the Birdsong before they seemed to find WR's deeper groove and go furthur with it. Result? Beeyootiful.

Sing Me Back Home

Davis Gym, Bucknell University

Saddle up heads, this is one of the nicest ones I know. Pre-Donna Jean, but the boys cover it with driving intensity and its nicely mixed for the era.

Nailed it. Part of the great April run that coalesces the '71 sound. Killing 1st set with manageable mix and saturation issues.

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Civic Arena

One of the tightest and best jams I've ever heard. Absolute magic. Goes straight into a killer Lovelight. This is an amazing show. Check it out.

Fillmore East

This whole run is beyond immortal and every CRS just kicks. This one is brilliant.

Hey there's a bit of Terrapin in here. Check out Jerry's melodic lines starting just around 06:50. Am I crazy or is there a little theme that suggests they were already working it out, and he slipped in in? So cool.

Exactly what darkstar 67 et al said here. I'd only add that Jerry solos throughout with quicksilver brilliance, note-for-note beauty. He was bursting with ideas here.
Space

This isn't space. This is just TOO>Morning Dew. It's awesome, but calling it space is anachronistic.
High Time

One of the nicest ones I know from '76.
