Pelletier Farm

The most psychedelic and lysergic Dark Star of the year. It's blasphemous that it's not listed here

New Potato Caboose
Aug. 24, 1968
Shrine Auditorium

Tightest version and one of the longest, the vocals are great, the bar against every other version should be measured
Wharf Rat
May 7, 1977
Boston Garden

One of the longest and most jammed versions
Pretty Peggy O
May 7, 1977
Boston Garden

Beautiful, still my favourite from this run has to be 5/5
Bertha

Boston Garden

Waaaaaay better than 5/9
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
June 24, 1970
Capitol Theatre

Although my favourite china>rider's are from the 73-74 period, this is a killer early version, they bring down the house with this one, one of the greatest show closers, and the Aud really adds to the energy of the song.
