Summary

This week the Deadpod travels to the East Coast for a show that took place around 2 months after last week's show.

This is the early show from the Fillmore East in NYC on January 2, 1970. This is quite a nice tape, don't let the few seconds at the beginning fool you.

The 'Mason's Children' opener is a good representation of this somewhat odd song. 'Black Peter' is quite extended, much more than usual for this song. 'Hard to Handle' is explosive as usual. The boys really hit their stride here with the 'Cryptical Envelopment>Drums>Other One'. I quite enjoy the 'Cosmic Charlie' that follows but that's a tune I thought they never played often enough :)

I hope you enjoy it..

0:49.0

And then the heart of this is a cryptical envelopment into drums, into a smoke another one, into cryptical, and then they go into a cosmic Charlie, which is quite nice, but unfortunately does have a cut at the end.
