Deep Elem Blues

Sweet opener. This is about where in the year the immortal Country Dead takes off: 6 hour shows, three sets, NRPS, what a time. This one's a beauty.

The last DS>SS>11 ever, and doesn't disappoint. Sounds like they still had TC's celeste, even tho he'd already left. Perfect cannon shot, tight jam.

Deep levels of intimacy on the AUDs here, and Jer's voice and playing are just spectacular. Brilliant fresh playing from a historic transitional era.

Turn On Your Love Light

Fillmore West

Incomplete show, but a perfect artifact preserves the LL in all its sweaty greasy glory. Pig's on form, the band is in swampfunk mode. All good here.

Turn On Your Love Light

Fillmore West

Pig asks some couple to "do something nasty" and to come up on stage, then the band almost soulds like they're starting Purple Haze. Wild times.

The Other One

The Mosque

Beautiful and unforgetable Jerry solo jam transition into a killer Wharf Rat sandwich.
The Same Thing
March 18, 1967
Winterland Arena

Deep and dark Blues roots Dead with a tight and hot jam. All the reasons to listen to '67 are right here.
Dancin' in the Streets

You can get genuinely lost in this jam. Seems infinite while you're in it. As Proud Walker Justin put it, a fine bit of acid rock, indeed.
Caution
April 17, 1972
Tivolis Koncertsal

Opens up in whole new directions suggesting what might have been had Pigpen stayed with us into the next era. A real gem.

Welcome jbrucer, I never heard about any rules of etiquette here other than, perhaps, "don't be a dick". So just be yourself, enjoy the site and share the love. Use it to express yourself about your favorites, and to discover new things while remembering old ones. Cheers!
