Hot Jerry has one of those amazing piercing solos where the notes cut like a knife. This is beautiful and well sung some minor mic issues but Jerry +

As passionate as i have heard Jerry singing on this one, does make a vocal miscue but sings right through it instead of just starting to mumble .

Cryptical Envelopment

awesome early dead, love the clementine from this show as well. Whole thing is just dripping in that early psychedelic goodness. Incredibly short That's It for the other one suite, but rather psychedelic. As usual seek out the miller version here it is: https://archive.org/details/gd1968-01-23.sbd.miller.97343.sbeok.flac16

Thanks for the heads up, i am really enjoying this version as i type , Jerry seemed to give Aiko a little something extra in many 1994-95 performances. Great energy i can almost picture him getting into ala 3-18-1995 which is another good later Aiko. HE was actually dancing during that one our jaws hit the floor it was a moment i wont forget and i started back int the Brent days(not that that was that long ago) but that was still a highlight an it was a 1995 Aiko. Goes to show.
Days Between

A little sloppy at first as most are but when it comes together oh my it is powerful and the slight echo of the nicely recorded audience adds to the haunting quality of this version very nice this one somehow eluded mre until now. I am a big fan of days between.

Loads of Phil Bass, Bobby almost doing a Dylan nasal singing impression at times, check it out, then Jerry has just a wonderful bubbly solo, excellent fun version with the boys at top of their game. Bruce is adding some nice colors. Jerry handles his verse with vigor and just nails it. ANother nice Jerry Vince Jam Bruce joins in. This is fantastic please check it out.
