An overlooked version because of the famous movie version from the 19th October, but good and on the money.

They really groove on the outro vocals-no shrieking,just driving on and on. Not at the top but a VG 78 version

Stella Blue
May 18, 1977
Fox Theatre

15 minutes of slow,wistful,thoughtful Stella Blue. Dreamy solos with a hint of echo, so the sound just swirls around. Mellow. A very fine Stella Blue.
Uncle John's Band
June 24, 1970
Capitol Theatre

Another 1970 acoustic gem from a superlatively psychedelic wonderland.

Jerry,"How many?"-Bobby," some whwere between 10 & 15-a whole bunch! {it's a 13 beats intro if you're curious}

sublime,beautiful singing. These acoustic 1970's versions deserve to be more widely heard and highly regarded.
