Ramble On Rose

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!

Yes, this is a Jazzy, up tempo version. Phil and Billy where really driving this along, then transitioned into Cumberland, smoothly. Very nice.

This one is slow and meandering. It never seems to establish a solid motif or a groove. Billy is doing some interesting Jazz style drumming and Keith's electric piano adds a nice touch. This being their, supposed, last show, I would think it would have been more energized. Overall it's just not my favorite.

This is a good 68 version for sure. I don't think it has the fire that the DS from the previous night had.

Fillmore West

They where really starting to play with DS at this show. Phil is really driving this thing, and everyone is hanging on. Jerry is in especially good form One of the best of 68, for sure..

Civic Auditorium

Their first Dark Star of 69, crisp and confident. Bobby was doing some nice interplay with Jerry toward the end. One of the drummers bass drum was out of tune. other then that, it was a good version.
