Turn On Your Love Light
Jan. 23, 1970
Honolulu Civic Auditorium

Another great 1970 Lovelight, if you don’t know this show, spin it. Very mellow island vibe, great Lovelight to close.

Turn On Your Love Light
Feb. 1, 1970
The Warehouse

Very surprised this one is not listed, 38 Mins, one of the longest. Jerry slide solos, Peter Green wailing, and of course Pigpen at his peak.

The Eleven

Oregon State University

The classic Live Dead sequence with my new favorite “The Eleven”, just a little more controlled, in a laid back, non-frenzied pace. Give it a listen.

Oregon State University

Surprised this version is not on the list the classic Live Dead sequence all very well played. This 20 min. DS has a short early Feeling Groovy Jam.

Darkness Jam

Santa Rosa Fairgrounds

Also out of GDTR, (which is very mellow), this is a very nice, (again short), Darkness Jam. I just love this melody.

Foolish Heart

Robert F. Kennedy Stadium

Good version for sure, but what follows is outstanding.
Believe It Or Not

Laguna Seca Recreation Area

The second (and last) of only 2 times I heard this song, this is a great version from a GREAT show.
Morning Dew
June 23, 1988
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Set closing Dew’s always seemed to have that extra umphh! Good version, nice Phil bombs, can’t think of a better Dew from ’88.
Morning Dew

Community War Memorial Auditorium

Best early 80’s I saw and surprised it only has 1 vote. Great, great version, Dick’s Picks 21 filler, give it a listen.
Morning Dew
April 27, 1977
Capitol Theatre

If May 8th is most people’s favorite version, (at least the most votes for a 70’s version) than this one should be in second place, I was amazed that I did not know this version, right there with Cornell, top 5 all time and it need to be heard and have more votes, give it a listen.
