Great vox and harp work by Pigpen at the Catholic center. Great sound quality too.

Cryptical Envelopment
Aug. 24, 1968
Shrine Auditorium

It's Arabic, Ernie, not Persian. If you are going to joke using foreign languages at least use the correct one.
Loser

Giants Stadium

So what does Weir's funky chord work gives this version again?
Dark Star
April 15, 1969
The Music Box

First appearence of the Main Ten (aka proto Playin')
Promised Land
April 1, 1980
Capitol Theatre

I think it's Phil on lead guitar and Mickey/Bill on vocals
Loser

Winterland Arena

So much better (vocal-wise) than most of the Losers classed higher than on the list.
