  1. Miles Davis, anytime from 72 to his ‘hiatus’
  2. Pink Floyd, either during Syd’s time or between ‘Echoes’ and ‘Animals’
  3. this is tough…but I’d say the Velvet Underground during tours for their first two albums.

I would have loved to have seen the first two Velvets tours.

I have an older friend who saw The Velvets in 1969 in a little bar in Dallas called The End. He said it was the loudest thing he’d ever heard. Maureen was standing there bashing her drums, Lou was thrashing the guitar, and Sterling was playing a cacophony of notes. He said it blew his teenage mind… He quit listening to psychedelic music and went out and bought first The Stooges album, all The Velvets albums, Mother of Invention, and Beefheart, etc…

Poster from aforementioned gig…

Okay…this is really really tough…and I know as soon as I’m done, I’ll start kicking myself for not putting something else…but:

  1. Syd Barrett - One of the very very few solo performances.
  2. Grateful Dead - A 1965 Acid Test performance maybe the Graduation
  3. Sly and the Family Stone - 1969 if only for the Woodstock performance…but I’m sure there must have been some other great ones around that time.

Honestly though, right now, I just want to go back to '85 in Vermont and just see every single Phish show, and never look back.
