Grand Prix Racecourse

The boys seem to love playing in unanounced, unstructred jams like this. Freedom reminiscent of some '67-69's but with the '73 songlist.

Nashville Municipal Auditorium

Rippin' show opener with Bobby twang sliding and a 2nd Jerry solo taking it up and over the top. Plus its Nashville.

Turns typical 1st set filler into a great jam. One of Keith's best solos of Summer '73.

Cool and fast w/ 12min jam before 1st (and only) verse. At 08:30 Phil goes teases what sounds like Milking the Turkey. Is that possible?

A greasy gritty super-funk sex parade. Wasn't often the Dead sounded this horny after Pigpen died.

Blisteringly hot version here. Great show all 'round.

Seriously tight and intricate. What a show this must have been. Phil's extensive soloing shows off his enormous genius.

A hell of a lot of music in these 46 minutes. I wouldn't say it gets as freaky as some, say 02.12.73, but endlessly fascinating. Something to contemplate, enjoy, and fade in and out to.

Dane County Coliseum

Played almost as a boogie-woogie, and Keith shows off his stride chops. Just lickety-split and dandy.
Mind Left Body Jam
May 19, 1974
Portland Memorial Coliseum

Turns MLB from a serene chill-out groove into a funk-blaster, and Jerry lets you know it with some vicious steam-whistle guitar noise at the start. Coooooooooooool.
