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!

Good Morning Little Schoolgirl

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!

The Other One
April 6, 1969
Avalon Ballroom

There's so many great O1s from this era. This one is a stand out, mostly because of the inventiveness of Jerry's playing. There was something about that SG in 69 that brought out Jerry's psychedelic magic. Everyone else is feeling Jerrys every move on this one. Then the transition to Cryptical then Death is mind blowing. Prepare your head space, Listen then vote!

^Yes, this is the closest to the Marty Robbins version that I've heard. I usually don't dig their take on this song, but this one really works, my favorite for sure.

The Ark

this is a very unusual and interesting 11! It's a long musical meandering that includes a lot of different movements and song quotes. Right before they work into an excerpt of Mountain Jam they play around with & We Bid you Goodnight, Which they play a little later; weird in a good way!

Agreed^ High Energy, no brainer!
