Bliss. Feb. '70 is full of peak Dead. This doesn't disappoint.

The Eleven

Fillmore East
Why not here yet? This show has it all, and this Eleven just slays it. Balls out, high-energy jams from everyone.

Ungano's Night Club
Like the night before, this just blazes with crackling electric fire. Great mix and channel separation with Bobby nice and clear helps. Overlooked.

Crisp recording with nicely mixed Bobby on separate channel = rare treat in this tight Stephen. Great show.

Cosmic Charlie

Shot out of the primal Dead cannon, it lands in the guns-blazing country Dead: I love 1970 for this transition. This is it for Cosmic Charlie fans.
The Other One
May 2, 1970
Harpur College
High voltage tight lightning jam without a meltdown. One of the best for the speedy coming up, (and great Crypticals) but it isn't where I'd go for the martian landscapes and astral peak trippyness in a TOO. Try Jan. 3, 1970 or May 20 '73 for that.
St. Stephen
June 14, 1968
Fillmore East
A proto-Stephen not yet polished into the psychedelic masterpiece that it became later in '68 and '69. Explosive energy coming out of a Feedback>Eleven and worth a listen with headphones, the AUD is rough but blazing hot.
Dark Star
June 14, 1969
Monterey Performing Arts Center
A "mini-Juggernaut", maybe? Blast-off moon-landing energy.
Eyes Of The World
Sept. 24, 1973
Civic Arena
One of the nicer horn-section versions from Sept. '73.
