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
Jan. 17, 1970
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
Dec. 12, 1970
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.

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
Oct. 31, 1971
Ohio Theatre

Dick’s Pick Vol. 2- I remember an interview with Latvala talking about the transition jam, which comes after the “We bid you Goodnight” coda, which is unique and truly inspirational. Give it a listen, one of my favorites from ’71.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
June 8, 1977
Winterland Arena

This is an astonishing powerful version, a highlight from a very good show on par with Springfield as the best GDTRFB from ‘77
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
July 17, 1989
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

The best I saw in the late 80’s, love the interplay between Garcia and Mydland, big smiles all around.

Dick’s Pick Vol. 20, great show, great Scarlet, this one should have more votes.

Winterland Arena

One of the last stand-alone Scarlet’s, this version is outstanding. All the power of ’77 in the final crescendo, harsh cut in the SBD that was posted on the Taper’s Section, some versions have the Aud source patched, try to listen to that one.
