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'.

Yup, 'Without a Net' proves that a compilation live release can be a great thing.

Well worth hearing. Includes the 'Feelin' Groovy'-themed segue jam and they pull it off very well, as 'Feelin Groovy' segues can run the risk of sagging momentum. This whole show is worth checking out.

Nice tight version from a great show all-around.

This show is an embarrassment of riches!
