Ramble On Rose

Easttown Theatre

This is a clear and well delivered version of this song. Jerry's vocals are strong and Keith is adding some very nice honky-tonk piano!

The Music Box

Very solid bluesy show opener for what whould soon be a psychadelic explosion. Jerry's Gibson tone permiates your bones.

This is pure 69 psychadelic energy, at it's very best!

Crisp, clean and energetic. Bobby's guitar is up in the mix, and it was about 8 months before Keith's piano would step on his complex rythm work!

This is another example of the fantastic, energetic, psyhadelic magic that the boys got, post Mickey and pre Keith!

I agree with all of the above, this is a very inspired version of D.S!

Keith is just a month in, Mickey is out. This is like a preview of the 1972 D.S sound. This should be up on the list!

Fillmore East

Just a month after their bust in New Orleans and the loss of T.C on keys, they where playing with focus and clarity. Varied and dynamic. This version works for me a little better then the 08-27-72 show, both really good renditions.

This version is worthy of a much higher place on the list. Billy sounds especially good and his drums are recorded well. Everyone is in good form on this one. I will listen to this one again, for sure.

This show should be in the top 10, in my opinion. It's the most inventive and interesting version of 1968, the year it was born. Bobby and Phil lock into Jerry as he explores a variety of riffs and motif's that exemplify the psychedelic era. Please vote for this one, It deserves to be listened to!
