Sugar Magnolia
April 11, 1978
Fox Theatre

Really melodic jam, which builds incrementally in velocity and intensity - then, screaming sunshine daydream

Cassidy
May 16, 1978
Uptown Theater

Very heady jam segment in this one. Show is a sleeper from May

Cassidy

Providence Civic Center

The latter half of a great on-two punch to kick off the show (1/2 step preceding), this Cassidy is an absolute bute. Bob/Jer communication is tight

New Minglewood Blues
May 12, 1980
Boston Garden

Jerry rips a sick intro solo. Hyped up energy

Feel Like A Stranger
May 12, 1980
Boston Garden

The 'butt sweat' meter is off the charts for this. Great Brent work and killer peak

Stella Blue
June 17, 1972
Hollywood Bowl

Blown away that after all these years this was the first time i'd heard this. The mere idea of the first Stella being played during the last Pigpen show is dripping with symbolism. The fact that Pig adds a gorgeous organ texture to the song makes this a bonafide treasure. Track this down, spin it, and reminisce in a true transitive moment in the bands illustrious history

It's that good...
The Music Never Stopped
Oct. 15, 1976
Shrine Auditorium

Powerhouse version!
Eyes Of The World

Shrine Auditorium

Speedy and tight. Segue to Music Never Stopped is absolutely seamless
Good Lovin'

Winterland Arena

Classic Pig on this one and the quick jaunt into ChinaCat is sick
