Not Fade Away

Boston Music Hall

The jam before is listed as a controlled mind-altering substance in 92 countries, but its cut on the archive is the cruelest thing I know.

Intense, driving energy. Phil belts out the chorus like his life depends on it.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 7, 1971
Boston Music Hall

CCS is supremely tight, with a bit of that '69 magic sound to it, and IKYR rocks. Followed by a Stephen, so maybe some nostalgia? Sounds great.

Manhattan Center

Great 'Bobby segment', as his solo has come to be known. Whole show overshadowed by the outrageous monster the next day, but still great fun.

Winterland Arena

Actually one god-dammned hard rockin' blast-off: Uptempo and hardcore.

Nice long ride. Up and down, squiggling peaks followed by blissful space, followed by further peaks....

Nice but incomplete. We'd be grateful for any link to a full show during this amazingly dead month.

The meltdown shoots you out of a cannon like surpise ayahuasca after the deceptively mellow vocals.

Short and sweet. Really mellow vocals followed by a shot-out-of-the-cannon meltdown right into a great Eyes.
