Ain't It Crazy (The Rub)
July 12, 1970
Fillmore East

A mellow acoustic version unlike any I the others more known for being uptempo and somewhat aggressive. A rare treat.

Not Fade Away

Fillmore East

Vast and expansive, with hints of Mountain Jam peppered throughout and a brilliant tug-of-war over whether to go into TOO. Needs a cleanup.

Sounds like Dave and Marmaduke came out mid-song to warm up for the NRPS set. Don't like acoustic AUD, don't bother. Like it? Oh baby, it's good.

First ever, and with 45 years between us and then, it's like a sweet whisper in AUD beauty. Real stuff here.

Superb, a distant reach-out from the AUDmurk of time. A special treat here.

Blisteringly hot version here. Great show all 'round.

Seriously tight and intricate. What a show this must have been. Phil's extensive soloing shows off his enormous genius.

A hell of a lot of music in these 46 minutes. I wouldn't say it gets as freaky as some, say 02.12.73, but endlessly fascinating. Something to contemplate, enjoy, and fade in and out to.

Played almost as a boogie-woogie, and Keith shows off his stride chops. Just lickety-split and dandy.
Mind Left Body Jam

Portland Memorial Coliseum

Turns MLB from a serene chill-out groove into a funk-blaster, and Jerry lets you know it with some vicious steam-whistle guitar noise at the start. Coooooooooooool.
