Turn On Your Love Light
Nov. 22, 1968
Veterans Hall

Unusual and inventive jamming and Pig rapping, shame about the sound quality.

The Eleven
Dec. 26, 1981
Oakland Auditorium

They waited eleven more years to play the Eleven jam one more time.

La Bamba
Nov. 11, 1970
49th Street Rock Palace

Sadly, completely unlistenable. But this is a song that will not be played again until 17 years later in the famous MSG 87' concert. So there's that.

Mexicali Blues
Nov. 12, 1971
San Antonio Civic Auditorium

SeƱor Bobby McCheese screams: "Everybody Polka!" right after the first verse, turning the whole thing into a (fine) Bobfest.

You Win Again
Dec. 5, 1971
Felt Forum - Madison Square Garden

Jerry goes full Country...Bouncier feel than the other (rare) versions.

Yes, I forgot that Pigpen was perfect in everything he ever did because he died young (I'm a big fan of his by the way)
Eyes Of The World

Providence Civic Center

HOW COULD YOU MANAGE TO DO THIS AFTER 4+ HOURS OF MUSIC ?!

RIP Merle Haggard... Beautiful, emotive version of a wonderful ballad, although Pigpen could have done a better job with his organ (the instrument, I mean.)

The Warehouse

The most beautiful thing I have ever heard, it changed me.
Samba In The Rain

Rich Stadium

I just love me a 1965' Samba.
