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.

The Austin Municipal Auditorium

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.

Jerry's voice isn't in the beat condition here, but he was singing with confidence and passion.
Samson and Delilah

Melkweg

Good energetic version from a European tour that doesn't get nearly as much attention as 72. This one is well worth a listen!
St. Stephen
Sept. 20, 1968
Community Theatre

Good 68 version & a tight T11. To bad they only played 3 songs & almost a half an hour of Drums.

Frost Amphitheatre

^^ This is a very good version. Jerry's vocals and guitar playing are strong. Good vocal harmonies too. Brent's organ work is very nice on this one.
The Eleven

Fillmore West

^^ Controlled chaos, just what you would want at a 69 Fillmore show!
