Raw and raucous, this one packs quite a wallop for its size.

A mellow version featuring a rather unique outro portion for ’73. Truckin’>Eyes>Stella

Hartford Civic Center

One of those ‘I can’t believe it’s not here yet’s. This thing was forged from hot iron.

The satisfying conclusion of a good sequence. A sibling of 11/13/72.

Bobby is pretty good on this one. It's right after 'Promised Land'.

Crazy Fingers

Great American Music Hall

Yup, tight and tender. Great version! Maybe the best represented thing from this show (save for the oddball stuff only played around this time).
Eyes Of The World
July 31, 1974
Dillon Stadium

This could very well be THE definitive Phil version of this song.
Uncle John's Band

Dillon Stadium

Short and sweet. Dave's Picks 2.
Truckin'
July 31, 1974
Dillon Stadium

Yup, good jam at the end (is it even Truckin' at that point) just before a Mind Left Body. And Jerry seems to execute his ideas really well within the song proper. Dave's Picks 2.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

Like many folks, this is the first version I ever heard and it was love at first listen.
