Jerry and Pigpen sing together in this one, and they brought the passion!

High intensity, coming in hot after a hot Caboose jam.

Powerful version. The vocal entrance at the end brings the house down, you can tell they're having fun; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gjjkcVIoys

Bob goes for it in the rap and Garcia smiles a bit. A fun latter day version, though it never jams out like mad. Video of it here! https://www.youtube

Turn On Your Love Light
Dec. 15, 1971
Hill Auditorium

I may have to edit this sometime soon, but as it stands at the present moment, this is just a notch more fiery than the Jahrhunderthalle. It screams. EDIT: Criminally good. It stands as the best of '71. 8/6/71 is good, but not as flowing an diverse as this one. Always exciting, peeking into new jamscapes but never straying too far from Lovelight. Explosive and rocking with that lovely piano sound Keith had in the latter half of 1971.

Cape Cod Coliseum

Kbeast, i got the same feeling. It hits the sweetspot and rides it out, nice post-hiatus version (but not the best, that spot is reserved for a '76 version!)

Cafe au Go-Go

Absolute monster? It's a fucking monolith!

The ending jam reaches the same hellish chasm they travelled to in the 10/20/1968 version. Outrageously fast, oozing power.

Lovely '76 energy!
