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!

Good Morning Little Schoolgirl
Sept. 16, 1966
Avalon Ballroom

This is about as good as this song got, in my opinion. This is some of Pig's best harp playing and Jerry is at his 1966 best, for sure.

Jerry's fingers where flying across that red SG. Classic stuff!
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 31, 1970
School Gymnasium, S.U.N.Y.

Agreed, but it is unique because of the addition of the New Riders. To bad it cuts off abruptly.
Cream Puff War

The Matrix Club

No wonder it sounds as good as 12-01, because it is 12-01. Good ear Dark Star 67. I think a lot of the 66 recordings might be mislabeled. 12-01-66 is Rolling Stone pick for best concert of that year. All of late 66 sounds pretty good.
Brokedown Palace
May 25, 1972
Strand Lyceum

Pig pen is playing organ along with Keith's piano, on this one. This was kind of a rarity by this point in their musical evolution. This is a very nice version from a very good 72 Europe show.
