Honolulu Civic Auditorium
Overlooked. Fine fine Pigpen here. Warm voice, swagger and just enough whisky-soak on the sound.

Firing on all cylinders. Hot ensemble singing. Great sound.

Beautiful, tight show opener. Incomplete recording of this show on the archive. TC's last show, too.

Classic "single" version, meaning shorter and more compact than the '71 hyperspace megas.

Oregon State University
Cuts in, but otherwise sublime. This and the night before's are almost studio-quality perfect.

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

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!
