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

Expanding over 14 minutes, this one covers different themes and vibes with great streches for soloing. Low-fi AUD.

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

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.

Cold Rain and Snow

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

Cameron Indoor Stadium, Duke U

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

One of the nicest ones I know from '76.
