Excellent show opening Bertha. Surprised it's not on here.

I love this song and I was surprised at how good this version was, when I heard it.

Sneaky little version, sitting right here in '84 delivering the good. I like it.

Speedy little version, that hangs in there and delivers nicely. '84 has some surprise, hidden gems.

Take me away to Dreamland, Truckin from 5/26/72

One of the best, if not the best The Other One's from Europe '72. It has sounds I've never heard in any T.O.O., Dark Star of PITB, before. Really cool. Worth a close listen.

One of the best Good Lovin’s I’ve ever heard. Pig is in fire and the band is tight, tight, TIGHT!

Oh, wow. Jerry's vocals, perfect and heartfelt. Keith's teardrop-piano fills AND Pigpens organ, in the same song. Jerry's solo flowing out of his fingers like small, silent lightning bolts. How'd we get this lucky?

I have to admit, this just might be the Granddaddy of them all. Just watched the live video. It's truly mind-expansive. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JukZBGgv8I
