Casey Jones, China Cat Sunflower-> I Know You Rider, Hard To Handle, Dancin' In The Streets, Me & My Uncle Friend Of The Devil, Deep Elem Blues, Candyman, Wake Up Little Susie-> Black Peter, Uncle John's Band, Katie Mae Good Lovin'-> Drums-> Good Lovin'-> Cryptical Envelopement-> Drums-> The Other One-> Cryptical Envelopement-> Cosmic Charlie, Not Fade Away-> Turn On Your Love Light-> We Bid You Good Night

Missing encore (We Bid You Goodnight). Casey Jones fades in at "...at trouble junction." Good Lovin' fades in about 30 seconds before the drum solo, during the chorus. There is a minor splice in Lovelight during Pigpen's rap. This is the first known Candyman. As this show is from a bootleg, no source info was given, though the sound indicates that at least one, and probably two analog generations occurred before being transferred to digital. The pitch was corrected using Sound Forge as the original recording was flat. Retracking was done with CDWave. There are occasional, very faint pops in the recording as well as occasional oversaturation. Lastly, and significantly, an intermittent buzz occurs throughout the show from a bad connection somewhere. It is most evident during the acoustic set.

Subject: This is the properly-timed/pitched version Tested against other recordings, this is the properly pitched version (China Cat's in G, not in F#).

Subject: Real Fun Show Pretty good recording. Nice show with some historical signficance; first Candy and FOD.



This was my first show, I was a wee lad of just over 2 years old. My parents took me. My Dad was involved with the local music scene (Ludlow Garage in particular)so they got to meet the Dead entourage. There's a picture of me playing backstage (can't make out who is who in the picture though, it only shows the legs of the adults). - July 30, 2007Real Fun Show

Subject: 1970 was magic I agree with the other reviewers, this is a special show.

Knew I would love this one when I got to the "dancin", a song I rarely like. Check out the interplay on that song. Phil and Jerry are locked in through the whole thing. Amazing. Sound quality is ok, but quite good for the period (it seems to me).

Besides, acoustic dead is a real treat.

4 for sound and 5 for the playing..... - April 15, 20071970 was magic

Subject: Pig Rocks This is an excellent show and I highly reccomend it. I am partial to '68, '69 & '73 but this one holds its own very nicely. Pig pen is in fine form in both Good Lovin and Lovelight and Jerry is playing very well. NFA ---> Lovelight is a nice grouping and one that I wish had been done more later.



Sound quality is also good although I am not a real freak about that, but I would say that most would score the sound highly. Few reviews but a great show for the listener.



If you havent already dig into the '68 and '69 shows! - August 25, 2005Pig Rocks

Subject: Top Shelf Just writing to "second" the review written on "Fat Tuesday". This is a smokin' show. Should be in everyone's collection.

PigPen proves (as always) why he simply could not be replaced. Also why Garcia often would say that they were more of Pig's backing band than anything else once it came time for his tunes.



And having listened to the Good Lovin' and Lovelight...I see that Weir was really just paying Pig homage when those tunes were revived.

No imitation - no dupication possible.



Great show. - February 16, 2005Top Shelf
