Never thought I'd dig this song so much. They're just so on this whole night (week actually).

I love this version. It's got oomph and doesn't put you to sleep. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyAOwP8dLqc for video.

Fire On The Mountain

Grand Prix Racecourse

Embryonic "Fire" in the "soundcheck jam" into Wharf Rat. Not a full FTM, but of amazing Deadfulness and not listed elsewhere. Check it out!

Bird Song
Oct. 30, 1972
Ford Auditorium

Unfortunate cut, probably just a tape flip, but an otherwise gorgeous, flying vintage '72 Bird Song that lifts of and soars.
Playin' In The Band

Cleveland Public Hall

Better without headphones. Mix problems are less obvious in an ambient environment. Sad about the cut, though: Jerry is carving wormholes through spacetime while Billy plays every sound in the forest and every wave in the ocean across infinite eons.
Box of Rain
Oct. 28, 1972
Cleveland Public Hall

Tighter than the 09th and 26th, and only the third one performed apart from the '70 show. Quite beautifully performed, even if Billy's drums are a bit high in the mix.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 28, 1972
Cleveland Public Hall

...the Bertha Board, natch.
Nobody's Fault But Mine

Springfield Civic Center

A clear and strong statement of the NFBM melody, tighter and more deliberate than the 26th and 27th versions.
