Comes A Time

Northrop Auditorium, U. of Minn.

1st version and Keith's 1st show. Jerry's voice is clear and full of meaning and remorse. Very beautiful.

Deep Elem Blues

Studio

Unique as an electric funky blues. The only recording of it between 70 and 78 in a studio rehearsal. Pity this didn't go into rotation this way.

Historic oddity. Keith's rehearsal and three weeks before the first live version. Alternate lyrics, but fun. Some sound issues, tape wobble/speed.

Playin' In The Band

Historic moment with Keith's rehearsals, so there's that. But there's also some magic here and they really bite into the groove. Some sound issues.

Totally nuts. The jam is supernova material.

Beautiful and unforgetable Jerry solo jam transition into a killer Wharf Rat sandwich.
The Same Thing
March 18, 1967
Winterland Arena

Deep and dark Blues roots Dead with a tight and hot jam. All the reasons to listen to '67 are right here.
Dancin' in the Streets

Winterland Arena

You can get genuinely lost in this jam. Seems infinite while you're in it. As Proud Walker Justin put it, a fine bit of acid rock, indeed.
Caution

Tivolis Koncertsal

Opens up in whole new directions suggesting what might have been had Pigpen stayed with us into the next era. A real gem.

Welcome jbrucer, I never heard about any rules of etiquette here other than, perhaps, "don't be a dick". So just be yourself, enjoy the site and share the love. Use it to express yourself about your favorites, and to discover new things while remembering old ones. Cheers!
