Fun, tight version with great energy and tight vocals. Fun stuff.

Begins sounding like the epic hard charging beast it becomes over the next months.

The NFA>GDTRFB>NFA sequence in its infancy: 3rd time played, and remarkably smooth and perfect transitions with exuberant jamming.

Super-charged hard rocker here. Hits all the 1970 highlights, with power and precision: a white knuckler. Tape is rough AUD, w/ C. Miller cleanup.

One of Pig's best: Perfect vox, great harp solo. Jerry too. Some tape issues, but thanx Mr. Miller... thanks a lot.

Savage cut in it tho. Mike Lai's soundboard has the last minute, but the AUD just fades out (tape change?)

I come back to this one again and again and just go nuts for it every time.

The immortal Pig Rap. "I gotta bouta dolla and a quarter... You can't buy much for a dolla and a quarter...." And so much more. I agree with Phil (!): This is some of the best Pig out there.

Very hot, very tight, and freakishly good. Perfect transition into a nice Stella, too.

To fully grok this one, you have got to listen to the Dark Star before it. Phil is totally explosive here, and it comes out of one his most massive solos of the year right before it. Jerry then takes his lead and tears it up in the most completely beautiful way.
