Nice early electric version. Always preferred this key for Dire Wolf compared to when they changed it in the later years. Just right. Nice version.

Takes you right to Chicago. Jerry’s playing emulates the blues greats. Hard rocking version that reminds me of a Junior Wells cut. Highly recommend.

Haunting organ playing. Crystalline and psychedelic early version that feels very spacey. Great vocal delivery.

Very nice solo from Jerry. Phil is all over this as well, some great melodic bass playing that compliments the song very well.

These early 70s Jack Straws have so much Charm. Silky smooth rendition full of grace and wonderful joyous interplay. Surprised this isn’t here yet.

Very very solid version, it’s not the most barn burning jam you’ve ever heard but that’s why I love it. Everything about this performance is subtle but they build up this very incredibly energy and they really keep it going. The music is really playing the band in this and it’s infectious. Jerry is also really really in the pocket and I love it, his slightly behind the beat soloing was so interesting and delightful to hear, he really played around with his rhythm which led to a lot of funky and unique motifs. The entire performance was overall a very hypnotic and groovy experience. Lovely version that deserves much much more love.

Jerry is breathing fire and the band is fueling that fire. A truly rare and powerful performance. Stop whatever you’re doing and go listen, there are really no words to describe the utter beauty and ferocity in this performance. Truly an all timer version of this song. 79 man

Great version

16:07 Jerry teases “Tequila” This alone makes this the best Good Lovin ever played. All jokes(not joking)aside, for 20 minutes of full on bluesy jammy psychedelia it doesn’t feel bloated at all. Flows very nicely and feels very organic, near the end jerry just blossoms and completely obliterates everyone in his path. Feels like an Acid Test, and honestly the earlier part of the jams genuinely reminded me of the late great Ray Charles. Check out Billy doing some classic RnB fills near the 3 minute mark. They don’t lose any footing here and this is one of the finest of Europe 72

Shockingly underrated, granted in a tour where the Dark Stars and The Other Ones are the main attraction, it’s hard choosing just one to focus on. While this may not be the absolute “best” of the tour, that by no means that it lacks anything. It’s just a different shade of many monochromatic hues that dark star has to offer. I love how exploratory this gets and the proto “Let it Grow” Jam later on during the song. My personal go to’s are 5/4(my personal favorite ever), 4/24, and of course 4/8, but this one really is no slouch. I love the more unique dark stars that typically stray away from the main theme the song presents. That’s why I adore many of the 72 Dark Stars because they can be whatever they want at any moment. This an another example of that.
