This really nice early Candy Man. This one is after Truckin. The first two are sound checks, I think.

This is one of the better acoustic versions of this song. The sound quality isn't the best but the performance is spot on.

This is a tragically overlooked version. Bobby's guitar is loud and proud. Jerry's Strat playing was as clean and twangy as it got on this song.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Nov. 7, 1969
Fillmore Auditorium

The forth live performance of these 2 songs put together. It starts out a little rough, then it evolves into a well paced and played China Rider.

If you're in tears after listening to a version of this song, then you know it's a good one. This is a good one!

Great recommendation Cgarces! This song wasn't in my radar, but it's a good song. A buried treasure, for sure!

Jerry got wolf back on that very date, 9-28-77. I assume that he would have used it for that show. He did switch back to the Travis Beam off and on during 77. But your right, which ever guitar he was using did sound delightful!

Jerry took Wolf on a stellar sonic exploration on this one. The drummers really drive this version along as they transition into Space. Very nice!
