Great version of this song, percision and energy.

Club Agora

This is a murky recording but a solid version of DW. Jerry was laying down some nice "twangy" country licks on this one.

Fillmore East

Incredibly energetic version, Bobby is at his best on this one. This was from a Fillmore East show, how could it not have been submited.

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!

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!
