Eyes Of The World
Fast, tight and energetic with really inventive Jerry jams in the trasition. One of the best of '73

Black Throated Wind
Perfectly executed arc of mounting emotions in this great version. The band is so tight throughout this show.

Stella Blue
Winds up more than an hour of beautiful playing - hard to beat Dark Star>Eyes>Stella in late '73.

Big River
Overlooked: Between one of this site's favorite HCSs and one of its favorite Dark Stars is a perfect, articulate, and virtuoso version of Big River.

Me and My Uncle
Great version. Nice Jerry, nice Keith, emotive Bobby. Sip your bourbon in the desert.

Row Jimmy
Listen to this one with headphones. Soulful singing by Garcia.."not too fast and not too slow"

I Know You Rider
Heartful, clear and concise lyrics and just a very full sounding version and Phil is on point throughout. This whole show is hot.
