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.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
May 12, 1981
Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

Following a great Looks Like Rain, closes the 1st set in fine form, check it out.
Let It Grow
May 14, 1978
Providence Civic Center

30 Trips show, heard this Let it Grow on the Tapers Section back in 08', took a few years to vote it into my top 10, it is worthy, very patient jam, like the entire show and then whooom, hyper space, (just saw The Force Awakens) the finale is awesome, check it out. The entire shown is worthy.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
Nov. 2, 1977
Field House - Seneca College

Very hot, the jam after the Supplication vocals is amazing, incendiary. Should be voted higher.
Might As Well
Nov. 2, 1977
Field House - Seneca College

Fall 77’ is where it is at with another ripping “Might as Well” This one released as bonus material on Dick’s Picks Vol 34.
Might As Well
Oct. 29, 1977
Evans Field House, Northern Illinois University

Hand’s down the best of the best, what a way to open a show, Since we just had a Fall 77’ official release (Dave’s Pick Vol 12 Colgate University) , it may be awhile till this show is given is rightful due. Wow, just listened to it again.
