Attics Of My Life First Performance

I was just re-reading the lyrics to Attics Of My Life when I noticed a comment indicated that the first performance was at Meramec Community College, Kirkwood MO. That name stood out to me. I dug through my music collection and it turns out I've got the live recording of it. Lossless audio, no less! Anyhow, if anyone wants the May 14, 1970 performance, let me know, I'd love to trade and enlarge my collection. Yes, the twelve minute performance of Lovelight is awesome.

I also thought that this comment was awesome:

This post is mainly in response to those who helped me out on the interpretation of "Attics of my Life" for my English paper. The paper is going great thanks to a lot of you. One of you kind folks gave me Hunter's e-mail address, and would you believe he responded to me in about 4 hours!?! A lot of you mailed me asking me what he said, so here is the letter. I debated on posting it for a while, but I think they are words to be read. Enjoy!

Deb,
I guess I have to give the stock answer: if I could say it in prose I wouldn't need to write the song. Poetry is evocative - it's meant to communicate to deeper levels and approach the levels of non-verbal experience.

I guess the best I could say is that "you flew to me" is an affirmation of the concept of grace -

No, this is not a song about being stoned. It's a song about the soul.

Grace doesn't even come close to describing it.
