1-31-1970 New Orleans, LA – The Warehouse (#140)

Set list: Mama Tried, Good Lovin’, That’s it for the Other One, Long Black Limousine,Seasons,Sawmill, Bound in Memories,The Race is On, Black Peter, Little Sadie,I’ve been all around this World, Katie Mae, Cumberland Blues

Well the first three songs here are the last three songs of the previous night. So I’m not sure if this is actually from the same night, or if just the first three songs. Either way after an excellent “Other One” , it fades, and they have some technical issues. So much so that the rest of the tape is Jerry and Bobby doing their acoustic  set. Some of these songs are new to me and they are all country songs that Bobby obviously knows, cause Jerry seems only to add some free-spirited jamming over them. Pigpen does come out and sings a very bluesy “Katie Mae” before they finish the show with “Cumberland Blues”.

Highlight: The Race is On

Recommendation: I like it
