The Spectrum

This EP is 'just exactly perfect'. Jerry's curlicue soloing over tight ensemble playing in a dramatic rising arc.

Me and My Uncle

Ohio Theatre

Bobby puts on the snarling spiteful chaw and the band is lightning tight. The banter after is fun too.

Avalon Ballroom

Quite beautiful and melodic, surprisingly. Perfectly transitions from the outrageous chaos of Caution into the sweet soothing balm of an AWBYG.

I Know You Rider

Do my ears deceive me or is Pigpen part of the ensemble vocals? That would be a rare thing indeed. I love the Nashville/Bakersfield sound here to this arrangement and Jerry is just brilliant throughout.

Was there anyone else on the scene extending jams like this in '66? Even aside from the Acid Tests and the psychedelic pop, they were so freakin' on at this point.

Plus one for "jitterbug". So right!
Cream Puff War

P.N.E. Garden Auditorium

Truly fantastic indeed. You can fully hear how they ripped Caution out of Cream Puff War in the years ahead. Also: Billy is a goddamned monster on this.

Completely bonkers. Sounds like ten-thousand rubber pingpong balls shot through a particle accelerator.
