This was Pigpen’s night at the Winterland. Pigpen IS James Brown on It’s a Man’s World and Jerry sounds like two separate guitarist on his two breaks during this song. wOw. The set closes with
Dancin’ In the Street (featuring Bob & Pigpen)
[Compare this version with the 1978-04-10 Bob and Godchaux version (Listen).]
Followed by the massive Pig Pen production:
Turn On Your Love Light –> Not Fade Away –> Not Fade Away.
Motown a go go.
According to those in the know this was some kinda night for the SF sound at its finest. Quicksilver Messenger Service opened followed by the Jefferson Airplane and then the Dead blow the place apart.
