Sure, it's a practice session - but what a practice session it is. The take of "Who Do You Love" that is almost complete here is simply outstanding. The first unknown track is an excellent showcase of Pigpen's singing ability. The jam at the end is really out there, and is a pretty good indication of how spacey the Dead was even in the beginning. Still, it's more than listenable, and feels like it could simply go on until the end of time.

About the time they played at the Red Dog Saloon in Virginia City, Nevada. I wonder if this could have been recorded there.
- ★★★★ · Recorded at Owsley's House in L.A. · nirktwin2 · 2017
This was recorded at Owsley Stanley's house in Los Angeles. 3 days later was the Pico Acid Test in LA.
