Rip roaring out of Uncle John's Band and after a high octane 2nd set, how else to finish?

Best of the Fillmore East run,IMO. Sharp and clean guitar work,purposeful but still relaxed in the best early Deal tradition

1970, this is new and the boys sound so full of energy and excitement. The whole show has just been reseeded on IA, worth a listen.

Almost but not quite as good as 2 nights later in Boston.

Il ove these 1976 versions as Donna gets to sing -no screeching. Same with Sunshine Daydream and Stella Blue. Turn on, tune in and turn back time 40 years. You won't regret it.

Just absolutely gorgeous,jazzy jamfest-with little tinkling bells and chimes on at the end. A cliche on this site ,I know, but more folks need to listen to this-25 minutes that will enhance your life.
