Sweet fun in a gorgeous acoustic set. Clapalong crowd adds to the joy.

Slow waltz tempo. Bobby's voice gorgeous, Jerry's cantina filigree perfect. A perfect gem. AUD quality B-.

Pigpen gets a woman pregnant on stage. Rough AUD but utterly worth it. The jam starting around 16:00 is very hot.

The Other One

School Gymnasium, S.U.N.Y.

A barnburner that suffers a bit from compressed sound quality (and a mic. problem), but still hot & worth a spin. Cryptical outro gets going nicely.

Jerry pours it on. The vocals are some of his most energetic ever.

A wild ride to open the set. Jerry knocks it out of the park with his tone as metallic and sharp as it ever was. Hot version.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Very well mixed on the E72 complete set. The sound is just perfect, with every instrument ringing clear. Killer transition here. And the whole first set just rocks from minute one.

Perfect emotional arc to the lyrics, captures the essence of this song.

Can't believe I hadn't already voted for this mega-monster. Very heavy jams and a wild edge-of-madness ride between the extraordinarily virtuoso and the random meltdown so present in the best that '74 has to offer. Sounds like Ned Lagin is sitting in for part of it? I hear wild electronica all over from about 09:00 in.
