Or maybe the 12th. Who cares. It's simply beautiful.

Totally free. There are Mountain Jam themes, met with Stephen Jams, then Bid You Goodnight themes. Seems they couldn't get enough. Good stuff.

The single best transition into Cosmic Charlie (from TOO) that I know of. From an era when they still meant it as a psychedelic anthem... Love this.

Forgotten show with a high-voltage and energetic jam, intersected with a sweet Attics. Great show, low quality AUD.

Turn On Your Love Light

Right about the 10 minute mark this goes into some deep funk straight out of the era: Buddy Miles-ish type stuff. The funk influence on the Dead can be overlooked, but it's certainly there. Plus for a few short seconds right at the end it sounds like they almost went into a Caution jam. Hot stuff.

The boys are in perfect form here. TOO's with Phil high in the mix have that added intensity, and the whole saga: Trucking>TOO>MAMU>TOO>Wharf Rat is just full-force Philzone madness. Beautiful spaced-out jam in the middle too. Great recording allows us to hear every piece separately, with the rare fine Bobby jam segment before MAMU particularly nice.

Hot damn, its lickety-split and turns on dime after dime. What a fun song this must be to play so well.

Wow. This one goes everywhere. Prepare yourself to be blown into individual atoms, then reassembled from the electromagnetic cloud into a slightly older, wiser, and maybe just a little freaked-out version of your "self". Not a first-time-dosing kinda version, okay? You've been warned, now go at it. Oh, and as stated above, the jam is full of wonderful beauties. Enjoy.

Great pure version, as good as they come. A lot of subtlety to Jer's voice here and throughout the show.
