Eclectic melodicism and mood shifts make this beauty at times sound like outer space, at times like a bossa sunrise on the beach. A '73 gem.

Sweet and tight. Soulful vocals and - if I'm not wrong - Phil singing harmony (???). A great show from the fall '73 tour.

Sweet version with long Jer and Bobby double solo. Hits all the '73 highs: tight, long jam, with lots of Jerry's fast-mellow and space bugs.

Let It Grow

Civic Arena

Bobby's neck vein-poppin vocals and Phil's full-throttle power make this a great one. Sept.'73 horns are low in the mix for a cool live/studio effect.

Steady rockin' version with beautiful outro.

Not the psychedelic exploration of death and dying BP can be, but a smooth low-boil groove with great soul.

"Cumberland Polka". Just simply amazing.

Fragile like a little bird, then soaring. A beautiful jewel.

Typically a FFW moment for me (go tape!) but this one held my attention and gets a star. Bobby's on!
