First Half Step of '73 and they get it perfect. A hidden gem in an often-overlooked show.

From a show lost between the great greats of Feb. '73, this song shines brightly. Great for Row Jimmy fans.

Seemless out of a perfect Here Comes Sunshine. Epic flow, up-tempo, great sounding and flawless jams. What more can a Head need?

A sweet, crystal clear version (3rd performance ever). Beautiful Bobby behind Jer's strong vocal, even Donna's great. Unfortunate cut around 6:00.

Just beautiful 2nd set opener. This show doesn't get the attention it deserves! Solid jamming.

By ambivalence I mean Jerry's well known hesitation to bust out and rearrange Stephen again post-Godchauxs. As iconic as it is, Stephen was notable for its absence as much as for its presence in my experience as a head throughout my time on the bus.

One of the beastliest, most rockingest versions from this special transitional era between the psychedelic primal dead INTO the country, before the jamathon Dead we love from 72-74. 70-71 are special times and this doesn't disappoint.

Soldier '15 in full spirit, but not in flesh. Wish I could be there guys, oh how I do. Enjoy it, tape it, share it, love it, live it...

Modern Head, I've been going chronologically through 1970 lately, and discovering some amazing stuff, and also rediscovering the sometimes pleasures of certain AUDs over cleaner SNB. Typically I take one calendar year to listen to in order, while dipping in and out of other shows as the mood strikes, and depending on the credibility of whomever recommends it... O_o indeed. '70 is quite special all told tho. You'll always know where to find me!
