Keith and Donna on this are just wonderful. Strong version all around, but Keith's fillis are just outta sight.

Intensity encapsulated in the middle of a TOO jam outta this world. Here's as good an example of the cowboy psychedelicore Winter '71 as you can find.

A bit faster and carried along with a strong backbeat from Mr. K. makes this one special. Perfect ensemble singing arrangement too.

Dec '71 NFA-GDTRFB-NFAs are all powerful statements of the band's essential unity. I love how China Cat peaks out atcha during the jams.

Jeez guys, how did five people vote for a song that wasn't even performed at this show?

Not everybody's favorite song, but not the filler it's often dismissed as either. The band plays it hot and fast, and Jerry lovingly dances over it with a thousand-and-one ideas streaming of his guitar with flourish and virtuosity.

Thanks for the tip Grendel. Mr. Charlie earns yet another star for fixing one of the biggest buzzkills of '73. Enough has been said about this show, but daaaaaaaaaaamn if it didn't just get better.
