Top notch version. Builds and builds and builds.

Unique version from an excellent show. Has a different groove to it from other JSs from the era. Several listens and it still stands out.

Tight and groovy - doesn't drag ass at all. Great show in all directions.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Beautiful. One of those rare gems where the Rider seems altogether tighter than the China Cat. What more can a head want?

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Seattle Center Coliseum

Super mellow and smooth, understated grace - like the rest of the first set here - and one cool '73 beauty of a transition to Rider. Overlooked!

The Other One

Kezar Stadium

One of the best Bobby-Jerry meltdown conversations during a TOO that I know of: Helped by fine stereo panning for the different guitars and great sound.

Rising and falling (y'all) intesity and super-charged rhthymic complications make for an interesting version. Keith on Rhodes is nice and of course we've got great sound for the Kezar shows.

Badass cowboys. Go Dead!
Playin' In The Band

Kezar Stadium

Absolutely burning. Great improvements on the C.Miller versions. Keith's contribution really shines. Kezar gets a lot of play of course, but check out 22, 26, 28, 30 and 31 March for total Playin' headiness, some of which are arguably more interesting, tighter and more shredding than here. (Headphones only for some with sound quality issues.)
