At times pretty, at times a little weird, but somewhere past 8 minutes, it's downright gorgeous...

Explodes out of Scarlet...a very dreamy Scarlet. Weird & unexpected, not the let-down some might expect. Not at all. Bob's a bit scraggly though...

Dark Star
Nov. 2, 1969
Family Dog at the Great Highway

If this was voted greatest Dark Star ever I’d be pretty okay with that.…. Especially since “greatest ever” just leads to great debates. And granted, I can say “greatest ever” about a lot of these. But…. This should have A LOT MORE VOTES!!! Ridiculous!!!!!!

They should’ve played this so much more!! Bruce’s piano jam bridge from Let it Grow into this is spectacular!
