Hurts Me Too

Felt Forum - Madison Square Garden

Pig comes alive during this song as well as this entire show, and Jerry respond's to his energy level, as does the whole band. I love this show!

Pigs vocals and harmonica are at a high and energetic level on this version. Jerry's guitar playing is a must listen, really!

This is a high energy and very well played version of this song. Bobby is in very good form here.

Good St. Stephen, sanwiched between D.S and The Eleven. Classic Pyhicedelia in the heart of Utah!

The Eleven
Jan. 2, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

Jerry takes a tenuous approach in the intro then works his way up to some assertive and imaginative playing. This version is tight and well executed by all!
St. Stephen
Jan. 2, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

This is a very solid St Steven worthy of much higher recognition. This is on the soon to be released Dave's Picks 30. The Late and Early show archive source is quite good, though. The Eleven that follows this is a classic.
Dark Star
Jan. 2, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

This is the Swiss Army Knife of Dark Stars, multiple functions in one unit: Classic psychedelic rock, space, ambient, soundscape, tighten-up, feelin groovy; It's all there. This was really a gateway piece for the Dark Stars that would follow this one. T.C was really contributing on this one. Trouble ahead for him, and the rest of the band, but on this night they shined.
The Other One
Aug. 20, 1972
San Jose Civic Auditorium

This is an improvisational adventure that needs to be heard!
Cryptical Envelopment
Feb. 22, 1969
Dream Bowl

There are so many good -That's it for the Other One's - from this era, this one is certanly up there. The gage for me now. is if I have the volume so high that I lose a little more of the hearing that I have left. I caught my self really blasting this one!
