The third set comes mostly from Wolfgang's vault and circulates only as a lossy source (please correct me if I'm wrong). On cassette, but still a holy grail by all bootleg standards and reportedly Owsley was really pissed off about it. The late Grateful Dead's archivist Dick Latvala was responsible for leaking the first two sets to the public in the 90s. This document captures the group at the height of their powers and it has the added benefit of the band not being under any "recording stress", unlike the Boston shows from a couple days later. 1969) was a commercial and artistic success and by being one of the first bands with the asset of having two master lead guitarists, Fleetwood Mac were an unbeatable force as a live-act. The group's third album 'Then Play on' (Sept. However, as erratic as his behavior became, the music just got better and better. The initial signs of a mental breakdown already came in 1968, when he first encountered LSD in the States (again, courtesy of Owsley) and began to feel the pressures of the industry when the group had a surprise hit with 'Albatross', both of which he did not respond particularly well to. The personal trauma he suffered that eventually led to his departure from FM in May 1970 was not something that started overnight. As sad as his passing is, to me the artist Peter Green died about 50 years ago. Much has been written about Peter Green's rise and especially his demise. Green's playing and singing, however, is first-class throughout as always. His mood seems best during the third set. He sounds more together on the 2nd set, even though his announcement to 'I Gotta Mind To Give Up Living' is sort of disturbing. If Peter Green drank of it, this would certainly have been noticeable on the first set as his speeches are unhinged and lacking coherence. Supposedly, the drinking water was spiked with LSD by the Dead's notorious soundman/guru on all three occasions. The concert attracted a pretty large crowd through sheer word-of-mouth.
So, the next day, a benefit concert was organized at the Warehouse and Fleetwood Mac agreed to open for the Dead once more, since they had a day off. The Grateful Dead members (minus two) and hanger-on’s were released after a couple hours jailtime, but not before having to pay a huge amount of bail money. The Dead famously got busted by the New Orleans cops in the night of February 1, while Fleetwood Mac narrowly escaped by getting lost on the way to the hotel (although they were probably not the target anyway).
