Elegance defined. Some of the sweetest vocal harmonies of the era. Nailed it.

Phil and Pigpen interplay like few others I know. Brilliant and clear, with a thumping good vibe.

Show is all highlights, and NFA-GDRFB-NFA caps it in style. Listen to the whole set for full effect and feel the love.

Kesey video after 12 min. of Ollin Arrageed, worth every second: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMAKJfuP4II

Samson and Delilah

Even though the cleanup isn't so clear, Bobby is audible in the mix, which gives a good sense of what it could sound like if the magic soundboard ever gets found.... Apparently there isn't anything in the vault from this show.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

Cameron Indoor Stadium, Duke U

Brilliant extended Slipknot, and one of the Franklin's that I used to dream about. The outro is sublime.

Don't let the B/B+ sound quality scare you away from this beast. Tremendous energy on this one. Deserves more votes!

Sounds like a bit of a tuning issue at first, but they sharpen up and roll on. "Majestic" describes it perfectly. This one goes an extra mile, extending gloriously on and sweeping you away with it.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

Cameron Indoor Stadium, Duke U

Great show opener for this mostly overlooked show. The McDonald cleanup of the only known source is most welcome.
