Has it all, and goes seamlessly into a killer Lovelight. Not catching why this show is the bomb? Try HEADPHONES - makes a big difference!

Let It Grow

Providence Civic Center

As a young head I used to scream out for LIG and this one reminds me why. They click into place for a monster show right here.

Scarlet scrambled eggs deconstructed and elemental. Fun and Jerry is on fire, but we can't say 'flawless'. Chaotic fun. Band's just warming up....

Dillon Gym

A strangly deconstructed early version (7th time ever), very loose in the joints. But it rolls along with great lopsided beauty. Interesting.

First show after the hiatus. Wish I could have been there.

Love the deep weirdness. Love the acid drenching. Love 1973. This He's Gone>Truckin>TOO>Eyes is immortal.
He's Gone

Charlie Miller saves the day (again), and I hope the first 2/3 of this show are on his "to do" list. Count me in with the Jort Army as "Commander Crow", including the Weir(d) uniforms, just so long as our weapons stay limited to day-glo paint-filled squirtguns and ozone friendly silly-string canisters.
Here Comes Sunshine
April 2, 1973
Boston Garden

Dark Sunshine: Heads get only 12 months of this beauty (Feb. '73 to Feb. '74 before 18 years on the shelf). Every version builds and builds and this is the first to leave orbit and reach into deep space. Historical and beautiful.
Eyes Of The World

Boston Garden

Jerry, Keith and Phil's brilliant musicianship on display - can't really hear Bobby in my mix, though. This one smokes.
