Whoa. Can't believe this isn't listed...possibly the most perfect acoustic version with David Nelson on Mandolin.

Absolutely blissful jams out of this one! Garcia gets in some hot slide licks before setting up a gorgeous, lilting transition.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 15, 1973
Dane County Coliseum

This show was one of my first "tapes", and I've always had quite a soft spot for it. I used to rewind the segue in this China>Rider over and over because i loved it so much :D
Dark Star
Feb. 26, 1973
Pershing Municipal Auditorium

I agree this is a wonderful version, though not my favorite spring '73 Star by a long shot. Grendel, if you dig this one, try 3-16-73. A little skimpier (only 15 mins. until they get to the verse and go into the "space-junk") but totally worth your time if you like'em jazzy.
