2-11-70: fillmore east, new york, NY.

the dead, the allman brothers, and love play a 3-night hitch at the fabled fillmore east. and what a run it was, with many fine collaborative moments captured on bear’s reels. the first night is quite famous in grateful dead lore. in the middle of the second set, duane allman joined the band, brilliantly complementing garcia’s guitar work on dark star. the spanish jam that followed includes gregg allman’s keys in the mix, and the culminating lovelight is completely off the charts. strap on your headphones and try this one out. https://archive.org/details/gd1970-02-11.126251.sbd.wolfe-lee-smith.flac16
