Black Peter

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.

The Eleven

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.

Dark Star

NY State Pavilion, Flushing Meadow Park

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
July 12, 1969
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.

Universal Amphitheatre

Not the psychedelic exploration of death and dying BP can be, but a smooth low-boil groove with great soul.
Cumberland Blues

Universal Amphitheatre

"Cumberland Polka". Just simply amazing.
Bird Song

Universal Amphitheatre

Fragile like a little bird, then soaring. A beautiful jewel.
Looks Like Rain

Universal Amphitheatre

Typically a FFW moment for me (go tape!) but this one held my attention and gets a star. Bobby's on!
