Polo Field, Golden Gate Park

Furious jamming! Jerry sure is cooking as the kids say nowadays. My friend is doing research on the Doors and the Dead played a show with them on this same date at the Fillmore later that evening. Thankfully, that led me to this gem
Uncle John's Band

McGaw Memorial Hall - Northwestern University

The whole sequence is really, really good but I find this piece of it a little sluggish after the intensity of the Dew>Playin preceding it but maybe it had to be, This second set is growing on me as a whole though
Playin' In The Band

McGaw Memorial Hall - Northwestern University

This breaks down into such an amazing fusion style jam ala Return to Forever or someone at their absolute best
Big River

McNichols Arena

This is a rollicking freight train rendition with killer vocals from Bobby and an absolutely insane solo from Jerry at the end. Give it a rip
Shakedown Street

McNichols Arena

Silky smooth and soulful all around.
