Family Dog at the Great Highway

One of the definitive DS>SS>11 suites and it power rocks on its own. Young'uns: don't forget good '69...fear not and dive in!

Davis Gym, Bucknell University

Stretches further out than earlier ones, like the Birdsong before they seemed to find WR's deeper groove and go furthur with it. Result? Beeyootiful.

Sing Me Back Home

Davis Gym, Bucknell University

Saddle up heads, this is one of the nicest ones I know. Pre-Donna Jean, but the boys cover it with driving intensity and its nicely mixed for the era.

Nailed it. Part of the great April run that coalesces the '71 sound. Killing 1st set with manageable mix and saturation issues.

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Civic Arena

One of the tightest and best jams I've ever heard. Absolute magic. Goes straight into a killer Lovelight. This is an amazing show. Check it out.

Jerry's never sounded so crisp. He slashes through it like a sunlight machete.

Possible the tightest outro of all of them. Can I vote for this twice? Shieeeeeet, it just rocks.

Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

This hits me deep in the brain. This is the sound of infinity, goodness in the cosmos, light triumphant, ecstasy. If streaming, don't bother with any copy other than Charlie Miller's.
Me and My Uncle

Capitol Theater

Whole show kicks ass.

1st version ever and its a Big Bang. All the Bertha openers throughout the years come out of this one.
