Hurts Me Too
Dec. 27, 1970
Legion Stadium
Pig's vox never sounded better. Pure, fine Blue Ron soul and a rippin' set of solos, but sadly cuts out.

All about the jam. One of the mello raps of the era, and they go off in that way that says "let's do this forever". Why not here?

Sweetness in form and execution. Even the feedback from the monitors harmonises nicely. A gentle, delicate version.

Deep blues, two brilliant harp solos, great Jerry work (duh), and a Charlie Miller cleanup. Listen up!

Deep Elem Blues

Starts a little funny, but has that rare electric funk quality. On the recent C. Miller cleanup, so thank you sir.

Deserves more love. Let It Grow just blasts off and leaves your jaw dropped. Hot hot stuff.

48 minute jam starts with Phil and Ned at their tweekiest. You've been warned, if that isn't your bag. (Not me, though, I dig that electric weirdness - you couldn't squeeze my pupils down to normal size even if you tried....)
Playin' In The Band

Drops you through the wormhole right quick, this one. Not a beginner's 'Playin' by any stretch. (Don't try to convince a Dead skeptic with this big beast, oh no.) Goes in and through and out of many dark places, but the whole show is full of very outré jams and this really sets the tone for a big big show.

There's a whole lotta music in here. Listened to it over and over, still finding new things in there. Outstanding, driven, tight and right.
