Embarrassingly bad > from "Wheel," but full-on assault from the band that rages throughout otherwise.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
June 16, 1974
Iowa State Fairgrounds

This China Cat should be listed separately, it's that good. Also have to disagree pretty vehemently about 6/18. Obviously biased, and I'll give them both an honest re-listen again, but this show has lots of slower moments, and not nearly the peaks that 6/18 has, imho.

(see especially "Bertha" (despite the devastating bass cut), "Scarlet," "Roses." There's a reason parts of this show were released officially.

If the transition into this doesn't get you out of your seat and moving, you might be in trouble.
