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.

Cryptical Envelopment

The Ark

Yes, that Miller version is the best!
The Other One
Nov. 22, 1968
Veterans Hall

If the audio quality was better on this, it would be a very highly regarded version. Fast, precise and energetic! The same goes for the entire show, the 300 people in that Columbus Ohio hall probably still have this show permeated in their brains.
St. Stephen
April 21, 1969
The Ark

Just the right tempo here. Jerry and Bobby's voices seat together very well on this one. Then they transition into an energetic t11. This whole show is good. There was something about those Ark shows that brought out the magic in the boys!
Cryptical Envelopment
April 21, 1969
The Ark

The slide work that Jerry was doing coming out of tO1, into the Cryptical reprise, was quite exquisite. Then the build up to the verse and the outro arpeggios, 69 goodness here.
Turn On Your Love Light
April 6, 1969
Avalon Ballroom

Almost 24 minutes of love lite and I was in it the whole time. The energy level and the variety of Jerry's gutair lines really makes this a version well worth listening to!
