Rises like a beautiful Phoenix from a fiery slithering the other one. Very finely delivered with some extra attention, absolutely fantastic.

Slithering entrance out of IWTYH really spacey interstellar sound, has the distorted lyrics, sizzling Jerry and Brent is great on this version.

Dark Star
Aug. 23, 1969
Pelletier Farm

Fantastic, another great 1969 Dark Star, nice and long, Keyboards are fantastic from TC and high in the mix. Nice and psychedelic. Pre verse jam is long but sticks close to the theme, again TC is starring early in this version.

Wharf RAT->THE OTHER ONE->MORNING DEW what a sequence, it is better on paper than it sounds but still cool effort. I like the wharf rat (not loved though) which i saw heavily dissed in one of the review books. Unfortunately we only have an audience for the other one and dew. its a very noodely spacey other one that would benefit from a crisp snbd which apparently is not in the vaults. Worth a mention and a listen but not really worthy of an up vote. IMHO.
