Mic problems just like the Viola lee, but it does not effect the music or Chales lloyd during his rap. Hot early stuff VERY psychedelic. The human be-in Polo field Golden Gate PArk. tremendous vibe and just killer energy.

I too believe it's misdated the gong just makes it sound 1968 to me. I could be wrong just the feeling i get from the sound, THE VLB after sure sounds early 1967 to me though.

This is one of those to play for people that say Jerry played to slow, this is wonderful. Truly so sweet like candy Jerry just going off like a madman, Billy is killing the drum kit. Wish Phil were a little higher in the mix but still wow this is scorching at a breakneck pace. Absolutely heady, absolutely deserves a vote. A few minor tape glitches does not detrct from the sheer freaking madness of this version. You cant think the tension could build any more but it just keeps going and going ang going then pop back to reality. The vocals are close to inaudible at times but then the mics kick in near the end. It doesn not matter the jam is so delicious you just want more and more.
