Rip roaring out of Uncle John's Band and after a high octane 2nd set, how else to finish?

Best of the Fillmore East run,IMO. Sharp and clean guitar work,purposeful but still relaxed in the best early Deal tradition

1970, this is new and the boys sound so full of energy and excitement. The whole show has just been reseeded on IA, worth a listen.

This was the end of the show where the boys (excepting Pigpen) were so smashed on large quantities of acid that they barely could play(and indeed had to take a couple of hours lie down!) They bravely make a fairly good job of it, so kudos to the guys. It's actually pretty good for a '69 Cosmic .
