High-energy playin' from the boys. Great Garcia solos and Phil bombs.

Fillmore Auditorium

Electric cool-aid acid version from the beginning of the Summer of Love. You can actually get body waves from listening to this one. Love the organ.

They Love Each Other
Nov. 1, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

A truly heady version from fall '79. Brent's key-clicking Rhodes piano and Jerry's beautiful solo make this my favorite version. TIGHT performance.

Uni Dome, U of Northern Iowa

A bit rough around the edges but BALLS OUT energy the whole way through. An incredible performance with Jerry belting it out.

Crazy unique FOTM intro jam, unlike any other version I've heard. LOVE '78!

This one gets very heady. Phil kicking ass throughout. This whole show is pure gold.

Capitol Theater

Great performance of the whole suite with Pig on Hammond organ.
Deep Elem Blues
Dec. 23, 1970
Winterland Arena

Best non-acoustic version for sure. In a New-Speedway-Boogie kinda way.
Shakedown Street

Sphinx Theatre

Perhaps in the top 3 highlights from the Egypt shows? Along with Iko and Ollin>FOTM?
