See All Cool Music Sh*t
Montreal Forum 12/4/75
Other than Bob Dylan's 1965/66 era, when he first embraced an electric guitar on stage, has a tour sparked more perpetual interest than his Rolling Thunder Review tour a decade later. By nearly all accounts, the first leg of the tour, at the tail end of 1975, had the greatest intensity and contained many of Dylan's most memorable performances.

1974 Roosevelt Raceway, Long Island, NY
This is part 1 of the concert recorded at Westbury Long Island's Roosevelt Raceway (NY) -- the final stop on this legendary tour. The group would play one more massive concert at London's Wembley Stadium, but this was the last one of the North American Tour proper. As such, it is a truly marathon night, with the group onstage for nearly five hours, and that was following memorable sets by openers, Jesse Colin Young, as well as Joni Mitchell and the L.A. Express.

Winterland 10/10/68
This run of Jimi Hendrix concerts at Winterland, with Dino Valenti and then Buddy Miles Express opening, are some of the most interesting Hendrix sets ever recorded. In mid 1968, as Hendrix had just released his monumental Electric Ladyland album, he began actively pursuing opportunities to jam with other musicians.
Psychedelic Love Songs
If you were given the task of compiling a list of songs expressing endless devotion or telling tales of true love, late-60's San Francisco might not be the first place you'd look. Luckily, that isn't what I set out to do. Instead, this collection presents love songs played during the golden age of psychedelia, when the music was generally intended to make your head trip and your feet dance.
