Good Lovin'
April 21, 1971
Rhode Island Auditorium

Insights and meditations on life love and picking up hookers from the great one. See his mind at work, jump on the wagon and ride.

Hard to Handle
April 18, 1971
Lusk Field House - State University Of New York

Overlooked gritty superfunk. Bobby solos, then Jerry takes him to school. Phil, meanwhile is nuking the world big time.

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
April 17, 1971
Dillon Gym

Subtle and musical, slithers its way into an epic Lovelight. Nicely different from others of the era, no NFA sandwich.

Hard to Handle

Davis Gym, Bucknell University

Another raging inferno. Benefits enormously from a great mix where everyone's audible and you hear Bobby's part. Hot stuff.

Paramount Theater

Carries forward the intensely creative force of the TOO before it. A glory.

Eyes Of The World
June 24, 1973
Memorial Coliseum

Starts really loose, but gets going.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 27, 1973
Indianapolis State Fair Coliseum

Crystal clear and jam-a-licious. A sparkling beauty.
Let It Grow
March 25, 1983
Compton Terrace Amphitheatre

Confirms why I'm not so into the '80s.
St. Stephen
Aug. 6, 1971
Hollywood Palladium

"Mellowish" but not mellow like the sleeeeeeeepy '76s. It still has some of the psychedelic bite from the primal years. Love love love it.
Dark Star
Oct. 25, 1973
Dane County Coliseum

I'd vote for this one twice on the MLB alone. Zo zweet.
