June 24, 1970
Capitol Theatre

Very brief, but the way it connects the 2nd Dark Star to Sugar Mags maintains the crazy energy of this legendary Dark Star suite

The post-drums jam on this is nuts, with a particularly energetic "And We Bid You Goodnight" coda. I always forget how dynamic these 68-69 jams are; every 2 or 3 minute segment of this sounds totally different.

Orpheum Theatre

The closing jam sounds like it could be another thematic jam from the early 70s (i.e. Tighten Up) and is equally beautiful.

SBD out now from 30 days 2014. What a run of shows - 1977-8 saw arguably the best Jimmys and this one doesn't disappoint
