High Time

Civic Auditorium

Understated and subtle. This is a mysterious beauty. Not for the AUDphobic, it has some sound/tape issues.

Fillmore East

Don't overlook it b/c of a few tape quality issues. This is fundamental '70 Dead and Pig was in fine form.

Cumberland Blues

Fillmore East

Relentlessly pulsing at a full shitkickin' clip. A few tape speed issues, but whatta time. Excellent.

High heat, though the levels are set really low and it sounds muffled. Sounds like Pig was playing a Hammond B3 that gives it the extra horsepower.

Turn On Your Love Light

Family Dog at the Great Highway

The rap gets good and weird, and there's some funny doo-wop backup vocals around minute 17.

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

Winterland Arena

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.

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.
