Some of the sweetest group vocal harmonies ever. How is this show not more highly rated?

Way up-tempo and crisp and groovy. This was Keith's first run of shows and their's popping creative energy throughout.

Bobby's voice sounds beautiful, one of his clearest, nicest vocal performances of this one.

Right about here a damn good show becomes an outrageously amazing show.

Exploratory and energetic, coming in the heart of an hour-long jam. Great musicality and clear communication between the boys here.

It's everything that's been said and more: I'd add that the group vocals are 100% on, and Pigpen is in beautiful form . This is one to come back to a couple of times in a row, study a bit closer, strap on some headphones, and whooooooooooeeeeeeeee.

As always, trust gdtrfb Era Evangelist. This one is outrageous, and the tighten up jam is without peer, and may be the most expansive and cogent one I know. In some other ideal sphere, the perfect SBD exists, but until then, thanks once again Mr. Weinberg.

The AUD is a C- but the performance is A+

First and only time played before '72, before the release of the record. Heavy emotion here. Does anyone know the date of his father's death, for whom the song was written? It's quite a sweet performance, in spite of the C- sound quality of the tape, and beyond the historical importance of the song's debut.

Possibly the best harp solo on this song ever. Pigpen tears into it like he's got you just where he wants you. Hard rock stuff this.
