Fox Theatre

Unique transition jam with a two-chord quarter-note striking pattern before IKYR. Band hits its stride in the set here.

Smooth as liquid smoke. Beautiful recording and great show, complete with weirdness from Grace Slick. A few tape glitches, but worth it.

Hometown benefit show with a nostalgic feel for the '70 sound that just smokes here.

Greatest Story Ever Told

Springfield Civic Center

Peak era for GSET. Jerry spontaneously combusts into a string-shredding inferno.

Extra-special sauce on this one: The outro goes into a long unique jam before the gospel bit. The band is completely unified.

I listen to it again and again, always hearing new things. One of my favourite versions of one of my favourite songs.

Great transition. Brilliant jam through the transition. Just an enormous show through and through.

Beautiful and mysterious. This version is exactly what I love about this song - even the aud patches in my version add to its psychedelic glory.

Grab hold to something and try to hang on. Remember to breath.

Really nice Cryptical on both sides. The "outro" is smoking hot and almost as long as the TOO meat in the sandwich.
