Augusta Civic Center

Whopping marimba-laden, a hot, and wobbly excursion into '84 Space. Luxuriantly gorgeous though threatening.

Loose Lucy
Nov. 11, 1973
Winterland Arena

Pssshhhhhhh. Stone cold lean and mean cut. DEFINITELY the best loose lucy ever, how this track was meant to be heard. I would be going absolutely bananas, spinning, insane to this if i was right there. Still utterly addicted to this Looselucy and play it nearly every chance i get, one of my favorite dead concerts in general
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Winterland Arena

unforgettably unique and slow china rider. This is one that was really settling into its benchmark rendition style setting it for the decades to come
Me and Bobby McGee

Winterland Arena

Crazy night and real warrior-like version. RIP Janis.
To Lay Me Down
Nov. 11, 1973
Winterland Arena

Nice, thoughtful, reverent version. Good for some private thoughts and a dark room.
Black Throated Wind
Nov. 11, 1973
Winterland Arena

Can tell 11/11/73, Winterland, is a huge night already. Bobby sounds superlative on this version of black throated. And the guys sound squeaky clean, as if they are Elvis's backing band or something. Big stuff happening tonight
