Summary

Merry Christmas!

On this Christmas Eve edition of the Deadpod we get to listen to the second set of this fine performance from December 27, 1970 in El Monte California.

The tape begins with an abbreviated 'Good Lovin' - while I wish we had all of this song, what we have is really good. Pigpen follows with 'In the Midnight Hour' and boy its clear in these two songs what he means to the band. Fine versions of 'Attics' and 'Bobby McGee' follows, then the Chuck Berry 'Around and Around'. The jamming in the following 'St. Stephen>Not Fade Away>Goin' Down the Road>Lovelight' show us the power of this young band. We hear the start of 'Uncle John's Band' but the jig is up and the show has to end...

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the Ed Pod on Christmas Eve 2021. This is a professor I'm so glad to
0:05.5	pick a set today. I'm going to bring you a great set this week. It's a second set from Bans
0:10.5	Performance at the Legion Stadium in El Monte, California on December 27th, 1970. Starts out with
0:18.6	a abbreviated, it goes into a good loving that we don't have it from the very beginning, but it
0:23.1	starts at a great spot and it's very well done, almost 10 minutes long. Then we get a nice midnight
0:28.4	hour. Pigpen shines throughout this by the way. Addicts of my life follows a really nice
0:32.9	version of that. Me and my, me and Bobby McGee follows around and around and then we go into a great
0:37.8	jam with Saint Stephen into not fade away into going down the road feeling bad into love light
0:45.2	closes set. They do have little Uncle John's bantees following that, but it's very abbreviated and
0:51.2	I think they pull the plug because of time. That's what I read anyway. So anyway, it's a 1970 show,
0:56.8	nice recording, pigs on it throughout. So I think you'll enjoy that. And I hope this finds you
1:04.0	in years healthy and well, I know there's a lot of sickness out there. We don't want any of our
1:10.1	brothers and sisters getting that. So be careful. Have a great Christmas if you celebrate it.
1:14.6	Otherwise, just happy holidays. We'll see you back here next week for our wonderful New Year's Eve show.

1:24.4	really appreciate it. Thanks again. Be well. See you back here next week. This is a professor
