Short but sweet

Jerry's opening lead riffs are sweet. The first minute alone makes this version worthy of a vote.

Deserving of its praise. Gotta agree with Dick on this one. Just wish the Dick’s Picks wasn’t no-noised to hell. It sounds lifeless to me. This might be the only show that I prefer a soundboard on the archive to an official release. The new miller source is great.

Alright I’m coming around on this one. Must have not been in the right space last time I listened. I don’t know if I can put it in the top 5 because of 11/17/73, 11/21/73, 11/30/73, 12/19/73 and 2/23/74, but it’s definitely up there.

I can’t believe how far down this one is! The jamming is so mellow, and Keith’s piano accents are just exactly perfect. Leads into a phenomenal jam. They ended 1973 right with this show.

Hard to go wrong with fall ‘73 sunshines, but I don’t think this one deserves to be up this high. It’s very long, but they start to lose me towards to end. 11/30 should be far ahead of this one, in my opinion.
