A solid workout with a well-rendered buildup and a yelping SSDD

University of Iowa

Amazed at how these early versions are so well established, moving along confidently yet dreamily; then some unique post-lyric explorations.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Rochester Community War Memorial

This version of the pairing is genius. Totally overlooked is right. A pathetic assemblage of votes so far.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
July 31, 1971
Yale Bowl, Yale University

So many great ones – and differences among eras. Still, a paltry three votes? Aggressive/ Phil running the lane here. Boot it up the list.

Indianapolis State Fair Coliseum

Phil is gargantuan on this apex.
