Hot and sweaty sounding mix with a bit of a slow burn from Jerry - not crazy with the macho but cool.

Purify yourself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka or listen to Jerry's quicksilver 6 string attack. So clean.

This remains one of my all time favs. Hi-qual recording of a super hi energy hot show opener - unforgettable.
Dark Star

Fillmore West

Sounds UJB/Feelin Groovish at the tail end. Brings to mind the DS a few nights later which in my opinion ranks as the all time greatest. I am sure Crow knows 2/13/70 but anyone else who has not had the pleasure of hearing it -stop, drop and listen.
