Early Playin'>MHUT>Big River>Playin' sandwich. Worth it for the surprise bigbang key-changer from River into the wildassed 2nd Playin'.

Let It Grow
Oct. 21, 1973
Omaha Civic Auditorium

Liberated from the Horn Section, the boys let 'er rip. Standard fare until about 6:30, then Jer and Keith just explode into full immensity.

Cumberland Blues

Omaha Civic Auditorium

Up and jumping, fast and precise version in spite of a few sound quality problems.

Sound quality may prevent some from appreciating this show, but don't miss this one. Bobby gives it everything, everyone goes nuts behind him.

Sing Me Back Home
Sept. 26, 1973
War Memorial

Forgotten or overlooked, but melts-in-your-mouth sweet. More of a triumphant blues than the gospel beauties from '72.

The Other One
Nov. 17, 1972
Century II Convention Hall

Not your old granny's The Other One - unless of course your old granny was that hot lady with the clean sunshine hanging out with the tapers.... Seriously though this is hot psychedelia that goes through all the phases, but doesn't have the hard metal edge of some from the era. Far far out, but never pushes you over the edge. A great show of their control and chaos, followed by a sublime Brokedown.

They're breathing as one, and this has some gorgeous, subtle interplay. Just perfect.
Truckin'
Nov. 17, 1972
Century II Convention Hall

A few moments about a minute before they change time signatures into 6/8 for the TOO shift and it sounds almost like a Nobody's Fault But Mine jam - not quite, but just enough of Phil/Jerry interplay to suggest it was in the air.
Cumberland Blues

Century II Convention Hall

No question, this one has a little extra chili pepper in it.

Simply on fire. Brilliant.
