Great second set version after a 45 minute jam and emotive China Doll.

Major screw-up of the lyrics here, Pig tries to make up for it and then Jerry just steals the show. I can dig.

Great transition out of Mama Tried! Real cool little western pair in the middle of a fantastic first set

I feel like '71 Sugarees don't get enough love because they don't reach the heights they would in later years and if that's how you feel then check this one out!

Wow. Best I've heard in '71 and shows where they would take this song in later years. Lots of similarities to some of the GOAT versions

Eureka Municipal Auditorium

Oh my goodness I cannot believe this is real. This sound defines "Primal Dead" IMO and is a part of a fan-f******-tastic jam. Please do check it out
