Me and My Uncle
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Stayin' Alive tease to open and significant teases by Keith throughout. Most interesting version by far - (teases continue into a romping Big River)

Truckin'
May 9, 1979
Broome County Arena

Gigantic early peak, followed by high energy band interplay, concluded with some jacked up speedy noodling. Hard to ask for more

He's Gone
May 9, 1979
Broome County Arena

End jam has some of the best Bobby/Jerry interplay I can recall - truly incredible. Leads into a heart stopping Truckin'. Peep it

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

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