High quality stereo audio, and excellent mix (for 1969). Alright! We got a show with 4 songs sung by Pigpen. Easy Wind, Searchin', King Bee, and Turn On Your Love Light (a 30 minute and 55 second version of TOYLL,too!). To think, a year before this show it was 1968 and LBJ was President, I can barely remember it. It seems like it was in a whole different dimension and universe. 1968 was when the Revolution hit the streets... "New Orleans-into-"Searchin'-into-Good Lovin'" is super-special.

Not equaled again until the 'Fat Man' sang it in Espanol This is a very hot set. Casey Jones has belly fire jams vocals yet to be fully auto piloted. Easy Wind almost has Pig in yodel mode. Dig Garcia's vocals toward end of High Time. (credit Weir for the tight backing vocals.) FD at the Great Highway 'by request' covers into Good Lovin' Plenty of Pig to go around to close it.
- ★★★★ · Early Working Man's Transition · GJR · 2004
Well, the Dead are working through to that Workingman's sound and it's neat to hear some of the earlier versions of Casey Jones and Easy Wind. The Easy Wind is heavy, noticeably, the organ, most likely near the end of TC's run (but don't quote me). It's not a complete show, but so far, it's sounding pretty good on the stream. Think I'll burn another disc soon.
