Evans Field House, Northern Illinois University

Of course these can't compare to the early Good Lovin's, but this is a hot version in a HOT show...

Playin' In The Band
Oct. 21, 1973
Omaha Civic Auditorium

Just have to add that I think this medley is a little better than the version they did on 10/27/73; Playin' reprise gets especially wild!
Playin' In The Band
Sept. 7, 1973
Nassau Coliseum

Really intense, jazzy version...Garcia is on fire for the whole show, which is one of the best of the year IMO.
Scarlet Begonias

Alpine Valley

This transition is as perfect as it gets and one of the best of the '80s, if not all time!
The Other One
Dec. 19, 1973
Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

I think this version as a whole is a bit underwhelming, but the Tiger/feedback section deserves special mention as one of the greatest "spaces" ever performed.

Fillmore West
