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

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.

Jack Straw

Nassau Coliseum

One of my favorites, great vocals and a way above average closing jam
Jack Straw

Seattle Center Coliseum

Good Jack Straw, not great I was at this show and Phil was having a blast. 08-27-83 does have my favorite Brown Eyed Women
Jack Straw

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

This was the first Jack Straw that came to my mind as being up there with 01-11-79, I love the fat sounding Wolf from '78, but 01-11-79 is hotter.
