Playin' In The Band

Rossevelt Stadium

Hard-driver with intense 10/4 jamming throughout. Phil and Billy give it extra oomph. Great mix with Keith and Jer up front and clear.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
July 18, 1972
Rossevelt Stadium

One of those rare ones where China Cat plods a bit and they move into a blazing hot Rider. Great show all around, too.

Like with all Winter '73s the band is in excellent form. Bobby's slashing chords behind Big Jer just make this one an uptempo gem.

Sweet and lovely. Jerry's virtuoso fillagree behind Bobby's smooth-as-smoke vocals just slay me here.

Nice exploration of China's melodic themes before moving into the Riderish jam.

Combined Dark Star and Spanish jam.

I count this as a Dark Star jam as much as a Spanish Jam. DS melodic themes appear in the first minute and recur throughout.
