nasty 80's vibe on this. Jerry's vocals are in the zone. This is one of the 3 songs that Lesh said define the band.

jazzy preachy San Fran, playing is so groovin', drifting on a reed, wavy gravy day!
Turn On Your Love Light

Fillmore West

With death dont this excellent fillmore west show shows a pivot from aggressive fist pumping jam, badgering the cosmos down to a rootsier vibe, epitomized by this electrifying love light! pig takes over and the jibes and whiplashes come with a biker's encouraging pat! Jerry is sharp as a tack through this whole classic set!

classic blissy sound on this. like many early ones the latin motif building is just crazy.. the whole thing just gets at this life-affirming, organic side!! awesome
Alligator

Fillmore West

something in thee air on this. Drums and feedback escapades weaved into this defiantly wanderlustrous Alligator. trusting the character of the music they have a dialogue with it from the inside for stolen along ears to heare. Slithering and sizzling funky country avant goodness.

Monterey Fairgrounds

the good pranksters transcend a lineup spot that ensured being forgotten in the ol' history bookeths. Flamboyantly chill and mesmerizing playing, less than 2 years into their existence the thing was very much honed, aesthetically precise and yet all-encompassing for so much more in the years down the way.
