Toe-tappin' and up-tempo with great vocals - Phil sounds amazing on the out chorus. Fun stuff!

The last 35 min of this show are just beautiful. From NFA till the end it's just smooth sailing goddamned good times Grateful Dead. Enjoy.

No Pig rap or sonic dose of the clap like others from the era, a a glorious slow-boiling jam over 18 minutes well worth the listen.

A fun rare bit of Chuck Berry's often-overlooked influence on the Dead (and all of Rock and Roll, for that matter).

Proof that Pig and Keith went together like potatos and gravy. Pig's voice harp solo are just tops.

Like much of '73 this is what I call "hot mellow". Energetic but nicely spacey. Cool version.

Public Hall

Oh man, now that's a great Dark Star. Love when Phil just phases in around 12:00 (and again at 19:00) like you're abandoning gravity. That this kind of music was performed live is just too fucking cool for words, but hey, I like Seastones, too.

Any advice on versions without that glaring AUD patch at the end?
