Hurts Me Too

Felt Forum - Madison Square Garden

Pig comes alive during this song as well as this entire show, and Jerry respond's to his energy level, as does the whole band. I love this show!

It's nearing the end of 71, Keith is on on board now; their tight and energetic, 72 here they come!

Pigs vocals and harmonica are at a high and energetic level on this version. Jerry's guitar playing is a must listen, really!

This is a high energy and very well played version of this song. Bobby is in very good form here.

Good St. Stephen, sanwiched between D.S and The Eleven. Classic Pyhicedelia in the heart of Utah!

Cryptical Envelopment

Avalon Ballroom

This is pure psychedelic magic, as is this whole show. Jerry is on fire on this one!

This is a very clean version and a good mix. Nice up-tempo version. Jerry's vocals and guitar playing are both in good form here. Keith is adding some very nice and appropriate piano work on this one.

I had to give this another listen. The contemplative quality of this version really conveys the emotional content of this song. And Jerry's solo is superb. Not the best mix, but a great version.

Because the critics just don't understand the art of noodling! If any one really listens to Jerry's playing you will discover a melodic and tonal complexity that should place him high on the list of the best rock guitarists of all time!
The Other One
Nov. 29, 1970
Club Agora

It's to bad that the audio quality is so bad on this version. They played this one with a lot of energy and imagination, it takes some unexpected turns and everyone's locked in. Jerry was channeling 1968 Jerry, at times.
