Playin' In The Band
Aug. 20, 1972
San Jose Civic Auditorium

A good cure for those 'No 'Cid Blues'. This one is a gem.

Morning Dew

Fox Theater

Part of the first Playin' sandwich. The transition back into Playin' is like the cops kicking your door in at 4 a.m. it is so sudden and surprising.

Turn On Your Love Light
April 5, 1971
Manhattan Center

An aural honeypot capping a dynamite show.

Dark Star
Nov. 7, 1969
Fillmore Auditorium

A breezy and pleasant intro gives way to a monstrous intra-verse portion that features some 'Uncle John's Band'-themed jamming.

Dark Star
Oct. 28, 1972
Cleveland Public Hall

Serene, frenetic, diffuse, cluttered--in short, this one goes through more changes than David Bowie's hair. Pheatures a phleshed out 'Philo Stomp'.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Aug. 26, 1971
Gaelic Park

A very strange but rollicking version. Yes, Weir sings the headlight part (was Jerry fixing his guitar?) Also, check out Phil's lines at the beginning of CCS. Oh yeah, and even though it would be nearly a year and a half before the 'Feelin' Groovy' jam made its first appearance in the CCS-IKYR transition, you can definitely hear a little hint of it here. Thanks to CarrionCrow for the heads up on this show.
