I always loved that Festival Express documentary. I have only ever streamed it online though so maybe the sound quality is better on the DVD? I could always hear Phil's bass, but it was never really a great representation of the tone... I always just assumed that it might be lackluster live recording methods, but maybe it was the digital compression of the video upload.
My favorite recorded Lesh tones (from what I have heard) were the Live in Bremen performance from 1972, which was the modified Starfire (big brown?) and actually a very early live set that I have from 1967(?)... which may have been the first unmodded Starfire? Either way, it's super chunky, gritty, and articulate
