The Other One
Wild, loose and scorching Other One followed by one of the best Crypitcal reprises, maybe second only to 3/2/69

Morning Dew
Beautiful
8
Doin' That Rag
Top notch version.

Dark Star
Honestly, not the most exploratory or brain melting Dark Star of all time, but you can never go wrong with a version from '69. (30 Days of Dead)
10
Cryptical Envelopment
Monster reprise, one of the longest and best ever.
4
China Cat Sunflower
Pure psychedelic pop bubbles up over the top and into Sittin on Top.

The Eleven
Jerry doing Jerry things

He Was A Friend of Mine
Powerful underplayed song, a true beauty. AWESOME

St. Stephen
another heady 1969 stephen, roaring introduction, soaring Jerry

Cosmic Charlie
Sweet psychedelic beauty, love the 1969 Cosmic Charlies

Me and My Uncle
another kick arse 1969 uncle. Amazing how this tune sounded back then terrific.
4
Turn On Your Love Light
With a Jerry riff here and Jerry riff there, everywhere a Jerry riff-riff. This intro has an Allman swing.

Hard to Handle
A hot version! T.C is a huge part of this one. Some real feisty organ textures all throughout, particularly toward the beginning and end of the jam.
