Overlooked. Fine fine Pigpen here. Warm voice, swagger and just enough whisky-soak on the sound.

Firing on all cylinders. Hot ensemble singing. Great sound.

Beautiful, tight show opener. Incomplete recording of this show on the archive. TC's last show, too.

Classic "single" version, meaning shorter and more compact than the '71 hyperspace megas.

Cuts in, but otherwise sublime. This and the night before's are almost studio-quality perfect.

Has it all. This set is just outrageously perfect.

Never drifts or waddles, just lifts off and flies away on a long and beautiful journey across it all and back again.

LIG on its own is up there with the most interesting and beautiful ones ever.

Boston Music Hall

First one in six years (09/1970). Very pretty and beautifully harmonised. You know, Donna gets so little love here, but listen up here and you'll hear something of what the boys heard in her.
