So, so tight! Holy shit! Spontanius combustion in the later half of this, my god. The video only makes it better!

Turn On Your Love Light
Nov. 15, 1969
Lanai Theater

Downright TRIBAL! If this had better sound quality it would be considered one of the best of '69. Helluva ride, clocking in at 42 minutes. Spin it!

Good Lovin'

Lanai Theater

Embryonic Good Lovin', but fascinating thinking of how Good Lovin' transformed over the next two years.

Sweet, sweet Pig. So laid back, this Easy Wind is sleazy as should be.

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.
Dancin' in the Streets
Oct. 27, 1979
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!)
The Seven

Cafe au Go-Go

Absolute monster? It's a fucking monolith!
Caution
Feb. 4, 1969
The Music Box

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

Boston Music Hall

Lovely '76 energy!
