Subject: Looking for 'Death Don't Have No Mercy' Hello. I am looking for tracks of "DDHNM" that are clean. This has been one of my very favorite songs by the core group and want to check out some different versions. It sort of disappeared from the rotation...

Subject: "Burn Down the Fillmore, Gas the Avalon" is what Bobby sings in Alligator. (Presumably dating to the days when the GD were business rivals of both venues, running the Carousel Ballroom?)



Anyway, this Alligator is the highlight for me, though Phil starts the jam a couple of bars too soon.



They would do a few great versions in 69-70, but the real heyday of Alligator>Caution is late 68, and this jam doesn't disappoint.



It's hard not to rate a 68 show high, I docked a star for the cut in the Eleven (which is not the most brutal, but still tough.) - August 3, 2018"Burn Down the Fillmore, Gas the Avalon"

Subject: Alligator from Avalon show on 28th? Anyone notice that in the last refrain on Alligator Bobby sings, "The name on the billboard says Avalon"? - April 11, 2018Alligator from Avalon show on 28th?

Subject: The absconded Ampex 8-track Note how at the time they played in San Fran one night, LA the next two, and immediately played again in San Fran. The night before was originally released on Two from the Vault while the band was still extant, as the first multi-track earlier than the Live/Dead tracks. Then this night was partially released as a bonus to the first album, before also being appended as a bonus to copies of 2frmtVault.



The show is maybe a little above average for '68. the Cryptical through Dark Star sequence isn't radically different from the month before or after but they had a good night. St. Stephen has the apple core lyrics. Unfortunately The Eleven, one of summer '68's best jams, is cut.



C+/3 Stars



Highlights:

The Eleven - albeit partial



SOURCES: The Saks source has filler from an unverified '68 date but the Sniper777 sounds slightly better, has the track boundaries intact, and several needed digital corrections. Alligator though Feedback is officially released on two separate albums. - January 29, 2016The absconded Ampex 8-track
