Sounds like they had a big-rig air horns, steam whistles, small caliber rifles and martian submarines: A Symphony of Wrong. Awesome.

Outtakes from Anthem: '67 comes in hot! The transition from '66 pop is complete. B/B- sound quality though. Worth it.

Filthy. Pig's voice is very clean here. The dates are probably wrong.

Dates are debatable, but the band isn't. Brilliant insert between Schoolgirl sections.

Dancin' in the Streets

Cuts out in the out-chorus, but shows the initial move from cover band into exploratory jams and bendy form. Very cool testament to where they were.

Not only is this version hot, but it's the bust-out too, setting up for all the great Bobby-Donna ones.

Agreed with Ernie5 here, this is a cool little one-off jam, which doesn't seem lost at all. Almost sounds like they were going into something else, but then got into one of the year's best Dancin's.

Dude 420, you are hearing that correctly. It appears the night before too. Check out this cool site on some of the recognisable jams: http://deadessays.blogspot.com/2010/01/deads-early-thematic-jams.html

This and the stand alone on two days earlier are just bonkers-good. I love how this one comes way down for tree-skimmingly low-altitude high speed chase.

Weak outro though. This show has some soft spots.
