Jerry's chromatics liquified my face. Total acid-drenched mindmeld.

The amp tubes are glowing white-hot and the Boys are not letting up. Face-meltingly hot.

The improv from the 5-7 minute mark blew my mind. Like a psychedelic steamroller.

This is nuts. Bobby is practically yodeling by the end. The AUD with people whooping in the crowd makes it even better.

This Main Ten jam is so perfect here. Phil's intuition verges on wizard-like. His communication with Jerry and Mickey is like none other. Jerry's solos are so well constructed here and he exerts perfect control over his fuzz tone. April '69 stars are so inspired.

I love seeing the evolution of these pre-verse DS jams through spring '69. Beautiful tension and release. Pig nails it.
