More Music from My Vaults

Maybe I'll take a liking to this whole thing of posting things that I've been listening to rather than the exclusively-lazy path of putting others' music up here.

Hmm....

Anyway, what better way to kick this off than a little early Grateful Dead?

This cut is a Betty Board recording of Second That Emotion from 4-8-1971 at the Boston Music Hall. This song was only played during 1971 and gave them a chance to get as close as they're going to get to harmonizing.

It's a really pretty song and what you gain in coolness, you might lose in fun things to look at...I'm not inspired enough at the moment to put a whole lot of time into the video editing.

This is function over form.

For the purists...
