Not the best recording, but Jerry vocals are just right on this version.

Bobby's voice is in top form on this tight, energetic version. The transition into NFA is flawless.

This is a tight, high enegy, version. Really about as good as this song got. You can tell the audience agreed.

Good acoustic version of this song. The audio quality isn't as good as the 05/70 versions but the playing and vocals are quite good.

From an all acoustic set. Tight harmonies on this one.

Don't Ease Me In
June 24, 1970

This one, along with the other songs in this, very rare acoustic set, deserves some love; Including the NRPS contribution. The contrast between this stuff and the rocking, energetic songs in the second set, made for a landmark concert. Really good stuff!

Agreed^. Great transition from NFA. Pig was playing some of his best harp on this one. Then, Jerry jumps in with that rich Gibson tone. Every one sounds great on this, as they do for the whole show. This is a real gem, and well recorded in a really sweet room.

This is an extraordinary version of this song. The drummers are completely locked in, and everyone else responds. Bobby is doing some very nice guitar exchanges with Jerry, who's tone and nimble solo work is just stellar. Props to Ken and Judy Lee for such a well mixed and clear sounding recording.

It's nice to actually see the band in action. Jerry was very enthused. Every one sounded great. This video should be watched, and this version voted up!

Speedy Jed. Alligator was up to the task, though. Keith was getting the honky-tonk piano sound down in a very short time with the band.
