The Music Never Stopped
June 11, 1976
Boston Music Hall

Baffling that this isn't here yet. Perfect tight ensemble playing, exhuberence and one idea flowing into another. Great recent C.Miller cleanup too.

Beautifully cleaned up version up now showcases the tight ensemble playing here. Bobby's tone is crystal clear and his fills are a treat to hear.

It Must Have Been The Roses

If you've passed by this show, you're missing out a sweetheart of a Roses here. Check out the new C.Miller clean pane of glass in the window.

Might As Well
June 11, 1976
Boston Music Hall

New C.Miller cleanup (10/17) brings in the love. Brilliant show opener with everything '76 has to offer: Hot mellow, lyricisms, and DJG at her best.

Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

Boston Music Hall

So many brilliant ones, but you're missing a real treat if you count this one out. Particularly strong Franklin's but the Slipknot! is brilliant too.

Playin' In The Band
Dec. 14, 1971
Hill Auditorium

Right on gdtrfb headly mellon. I've always been fascinated by the development of Playin' and looks like you've done the research. I think the germ of Bacchus Dionysus always lay deep in Playin's "The Main Ten" kernel, and it took them just over a year to birth the young and reckless God within it. Check out the Capitol Theater shows on 06 & 08 November 1970 if you haven't already.
Black Peter
Dec. 28, 1986
Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

I was there and there was a lot of emotion running through the scene when this came on. The whole run at Kaiser carries a lot of weight as another turning point in the story. Thanks for the flashback.
Me and Bobby McGee
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

Sweet sweet lovin' for you and balm for your soul spliced right there inside a wicked 40 minute TOO from the dark side. Sweetness and light with jagged bits of scary return.
The Other One
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

This is a deep ride. Love how in emerges from a trickle into a raging cataract. Check how Phil tries to lead it in about 7 min but gets vetoed by the others, who have more deep space to explore first. 17 min jam before the first verse - almost 40 minutes total not including 3 min of drums in the middle. And a gorgeous Bobby McGee sandwich. Wow.

Apocalyptic hard rock from the hard core era. Did they ever sound so dangerous again as they did until 01.01.1970? Like a deep 'scare the squares and watch out for flying metal' dangerous. Skull-fucked indeed.
