Comes out of a MLB jam, a big fat mellow groove sets out what is one of those weeks of really good versions.

As it's now the 50th anniversary year, listening to a lot of 69 GD. These Dark Stars are just so spectacular.

I'm listening and downloading this show as I type. Another gem from '69. What a GREAT year. In this 50th anniversary year, I'm hoping that we might get some official HDCD releases of this show( or the Dream Bowl or the ARK shows......)
