Ain't It Crazy (The Rub)

Fillmore East

A mellow acoustic version unlike any I the others more known for being uptempo and somewhat aggressive. A rare treat.

Vast and expansive, with hints of Mountain Jam peppered throughout and a brilliant tug-of-war over whether to go into TOO. Needs a cleanup.

Sounds like Dave and Marmaduke came out mid-song to warm up for the NRPS set. Don't like acoustic AUD, don't bother. Like it? Oh baby, it's good.

First ever, and with 45 years between us and then, it's like a sweet whisper in AUD beauty. Real stuff here.

Superb, a distant reach-out from the AUDmurk of time. A special treat here.

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.
