Friend of the Devil

Capitol Theater

1st ever, slightly different lyrics, but an incredible delivery and freshness. Tricksters intro the country sound for NY heads expecting Alligator.

Inside this not great show is a beautiful short acoustic set, including this perfect beauty. Totally overlooked.

Sweet acoustic version. Bobby is spot on.

Absolutely pristine version with clear harmonies and beautiful emotive singing. Not a beloved show, but give this one a chance.

The Other One

Civic Auditorium

A blazing supernova of psychedelic force. Packs quite a wallop for only six and half short minutes.

Here Comes Sunshine
Nov. 14, 1973
San Diego International Sports Arena

Brings the love on strong and thick. Second round of soloing is pretty mega Though they aren't quite as tight as other versions coming out of the jam, I still keep this on my ever-expanding list of "top shelf" '73 shows.

Kiel Auditorium

Zen-like spacious "hot mellow" like the best of '73. Opening the show like this must have told the heads in attendance, "Gear up boys and girls, we're on tonight...."
Hard to Handle
Aug. 4, 1971
Terminal Island Correctional Facility

Solid rocker.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 2, 1977
Paramount Theatre

Beautiful with a tight jam that scratches the Scarlet Itch. Sounds like Keith on an early celeste program for synth or MOOG at beginning of FTM. Anyone know what rig he was playing?
Let It Grow

Paramount Theatre

Big LIG fan here, who generally prefers the '73 sound to the speedy late '70s and '80s vibe, but this one knocks it out of the park. Totally blazing.
