Sweet fun in a gorgeous acoustic set. Clapalong crowd adds to the joy.

Slow waltz tempo. Bobby's voice gorgeous, Jerry's cantina filigree perfect. A perfect gem. AUD quality B-.

Pigpen gets a woman pregnant on stage. Rough AUD but utterly worth it. The jam starting around 16:00 is very hot.

The Other One

School Gymnasium, S.U.N.Y.

A barnburner that suffers a bit from compressed sound quality (and a mic. problem), but still hot & worth a spin. Cryptical outro gets going nicely.

Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
June 14, 1976
Beacon Theatre

Only the Dead can melt down and build up at the same time like this wonderful Slipknot. The knot is knotted, the loop well looped and out of the tangle we go into the beauty of Franklin's Tower. The '76 groove mellows it waaaaaaaay out, but they're really tight even at the slow tempo. Honestly, too, never did Donna, Bobby and Jerry harmonise so sweetly as on this Help.
Mind Left Body Jam

No such thing as a bad MLB jam. The Playin' before it got so weird that even the tough bikers were probably freaked out, let alone the dosed hippies. The MLB just brought it back and shows us good sunlight and lots of tender love. I'm there in mind today, though I couldn't be there in body then.

Totally blazing. Jerry took his vitamins.

Agreed that this is unique. Compare the 2 sets to this amazing show: 1st set is jumping and hot, while the whole 2nd set is cool, smooth and mellow , including the beautiful DS and this great Eyes.
Playin' In The Band

Funny version. Seems to space out for a while then really heats up right at the massive ending.
