I am always on the search for top notch Cassidys' and this one really checks all the right boxes. The mid song jam is en fuego

Tight and focused, only 8 minutes but for 8 minutes it covers a lot of ground.

Nice plucky playing from Jerry in that solo.
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance

This version is all about the sweet Spanish jam segue into drums. Dope!
St. Stephen

Thelma Theater

Very unique version with a hard driving and intense jam after the William Tell lyrics. Surprised not to see this one higher up in the list.
Dark Star

Thelma Theater

This is a very well played Dark Star. Has everything a Star from '69 should have; swirling psychedelia and gorgeous improv, nicely compacted into a tight 20 minute version.
