You need the Sir Mick source on IA as some of the shows seem to be the night before. Muddy sound but a good version of the few times this song was pla

IMO you can always tell the headiness of a show by how much love and care and attention goes into songs like Deal &This is one is right on point

Dark Star
Feb. 22, 1969
Dream Bowl

This show is one of my all time favourites From start to end. It just flows in and out and around. Spacey, but never lost in space. This week in 1969 produces some amazing shows and very special Dark Stars. Each one a journey into your own inner space. No wonder we struggle to find our own "best ever" versions of D.S, let alone what might work for someone else. If you can, give this show a whirl. Dream away at the Dream Bowl.

The Other One

Century II Convention Hall

This deserves to be so much higher. Jazz rock genius, Mr Keith Godchaux! With the DP's mix listen to his playing, not just on this but Truckin', He's Gone. Go run and see.!
