The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

St. Stephen
June 14, 1968
Fillmore East

check 12/31/68 track 40 for what I believe is referenced as the sbd of this Stephen - it's early and it's killer - awesome sbd tracks from various 68 shows - goldmine.
