- ★★★★★ · Pigpen in Chicago 1969 = FIVE STARS · oh_uh_um_ah · 2008
After performing at the Ark in Boston, April 21, 22, & 23 the boys took a day off to travel to Chicago to perform on April 25 at the Electric Theater. 3 of the 6 songs performed here are sung by Pigpen. I happen to be a huge fan of Pigpen and cheerish every performance I can get my hands on of this incredible performer, musician and composer. Hard to Handle is loose bluesy and funky...like Chicago was in 1969. I recommend adding this to your 1969 collection, the recording is remarkable.

Coming off a three day scorcher at the Ark the boys continue to pour it out strong in this opener to another three day extravaganza of psychedelic shenanigans! For a mega dose listen to all six shows in a row!
