Listen to the last 3 minutes of the jam before >Drums. Really unique and one of my favorite Brent solos.

Great opener along with the Franklin's. Jerry has some hot licks in this one.

Drums -> Space

San Francisco Civic Center

Cool drum segment that drifts into a space that is kind of like Ollin Arrageed with Spanish jam licks.

Dark Star
Dec. 11, 1969
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.
Dark Star
Jan. 2, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

Loving this Dark Star from Dave's Picks 30. All sorts of subtleties to catch in this one. Around the 22 minute mark you can hear a Sugar Magnolia jam that's pretty cool. The first one wouldn't have been played till June of the same year.
Black Peter
Jan. 2, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

These early Black Peters' always seem a little too slow and plodding to me. This version is no different. I would imagine this sucked the life out of the room for those that were there.
Mason's Children
Jan. 2, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

This version slays
Might As Well
June 14, 1976
Beacon Theatre

Jerry's solo is very authoritative. Energetic and punchy version.
