They Love Each Other

This song gets better and better during the Spring '73 tour. Here it grooves with so much butt in it, just try to sit still.

Triumphant and building, reaches one peak after another. Beautifully harmonised.

So fine. Jer and Keith are so playful and so fast, Bobby's on.

Nice banging and clanging solos here and a damned fine backwoods country vibe to this whole first set.

Great high-energy show opener. 30-31 March '73 often overlooked. Give a listen and you wont regret it.

The Music Never Stopped

Jerry plays like a man possessed.
Viola Lee Blues

Needs a cleanup, but certainly beyond fathom. Serious brain melter, with experimental sections before the wild crescendo/accelerando leading to the last verse. Only one other version after this, as I guess they were leaving the psychedelic repertoire behind for other bigtime jam vehicles. Hot stuff, and the audience having their collective minds blown apart adds to the high energy. This whole show rocks, but definitely needs a cleanup!
Swing Low Sweet Chariot

Fillmore East

A precious gem, in a beautiful set full of rare beauties.
I Hear A Voice Calling

Wow. That's amazing.
Sugar Magnolia

Winnipeg Fairgrounds

Not quite a Sugar Mag, and not quite a "Pick a Bail of Cotton" on which, it should now be totally evident, the former is based. Who knew? Fun and historically important. Worth a once-over, at least.
