Hard to Handle

49th Street Rock Palace

Hot soloing and '71 levels of intensity. Listenable in spite of some tape wobble and distortion. Fun to watch H2H expanding during this era.

Deep Elem Blues

Action House

Headphones only very rough AUD, but one of the rare electric funky Deep Elems. Historical rarity.

Pity about the C- sound quality, because a new tape of this would show us a real corker.

Capitol Theater

Final jam in an enormous show. Just killer. Follows the one NRPS set you need to hear. Whatta world.

Through the AUD fuzz and chatter comes a beautifully rendered vocal performance. Enjoy this hidden treasure.

Uncle John's Band
Nov. 16, 1970
Fillmore East

Seems like the date of the show is in question, with strong arguments for the 16th ("unannounced show") or the 23rd ("Hells Angels Benefit"), with "memories" backing up either story. Either way, it's a magic little show with great accompaniments by guest stars. This UJB is gorgeous.
King Bee
Nov. 23, 1970
Anderson Theatre

Some debate as to this date. Just listened to it all as 16 November 1970. In any case, the whole thing is just amazing. I love how clear Bobby is in the mix throughout, which is so rare for the era.
Feelin' Groovy Jam
May 25, 1972
Strand Lyceum

Right on Robjacobi waikikirob. As I said on the Dark Star comments from this show, this is the music I want playing (on a loop) over my tombstone. Also, nice form on your picture there. Ride one for all those surfers out there who no longer live next to the ocean....
Samson and Delilah
June 9, 1977
Winterland Arena

Charges right out of the gate. Even if this isn't your favorite song, they leave no doubt about their blazing energy. Jerry/Keith communication across the soloing is just brilliant.

Winterland Arena

Ripping opener. It's been so long since I dropped in on this show, but it's like a cool glass of water on a hot day: Just exactly perfect. Jerry's outro solo announced to these lucky fans just what kind of night they were in for.
