High Time

Civic Auditorium

Understated and subtle. This is a mysterious beauty. Not for the AUDphobic, it has some sound/tape issues.

Don't overlook it b/c of a few tape quality issues. This is fundamental '70 Dead and Pig was in fine form.

Cumberland Blues

Fillmore East

Relentlessly pulsing at a full shitkickin' clip. A few tape speed issues, but whatta time. Excellent.

High heat, though the levels are set really low and it sounds muffled. Sounds like Pig was playing a Hammond B3 that gives it the extra horsepower.

Family Dog at the Great Highway

The rap gets good and weird, and there's some funny doo-wop backup vocals around minute 17.

A real surprise and treat after the finger blistering Dancin'. Right now becomes my favorite ever.
Dancin' in the Streets

Swing Auditorium

In as close to a flawless show as this one, the Dancin' really stands out for its incredibly shredding good time vibe.

Woke up with Jack Straw in my mind, came here for this and BANG! Absolutely ripping version. Great stuff.

Faster than others from the era, but never rushed: Finds a really nice pocket and grooves there. High octane indeed.

Has it all. Nice to get into this whole show, not just the immortal PITB.
