Hard-swingin' version with lots of oomph behind it. Sweet show.

A dynamite set opener, worth the ride in spite of some rough aud/soundboard patches.

Phil in good form, high energy and an epic 1st set. A must for '73 fans.

More hard rockin' than others in the tour. Stretches out a bit more too, though rough in places has great energy.

What the '70 Dead sound is all about: From an hour-long at times frantic and at all time intensely rocking Dark Star>Love Light jam session with special guests to a sweet and lovely acoustic three-part harmony UJB in a matter of minutes. Their well was just so incredibly deep.

Deserves much more love. The whole show has a crackling electricity to it. They're dialed way in and amped way up. Brilliant from start to finish.

I'd vote for this one again and again if allowed to. Like high-tension wires, it crackles and jumps. The mix is high on the treble end and slightly tinny, but this just adds to the adrenalin rush.

Follows a high-voltage and dangerous TOO>Cryptical, once again showing the turn-on-a-dime stylistic breadth of our boys here. From psychedelic super-rush to a sweet country ditty (about paranoia) in one clean sweep.

Everything I look for in a Franklin's. It was always the mark of a great show for me when they broke this out. This one does not disappoint.
