So perfect, it's hard to believe that people could improvise music like this together. This amazing show deserves a clean-up!

Overlooked: Between one of this site's favorite HCSs and one of its favorite Dark Stars is a perfect, articulate, and virtuoso version of Big River.

Just outrageous. Problematic show b/c of mix and cuts in the source. Not here: just a blizzard of jam.

Show is overlooked b/c mix problems, but they're absolutely on fire and this version shreds like all get-out. Call C. Miller for this one please!

Could be massively heady, but Billy is so high in the mix that it's hard to follow others. Any cleaner versions out there? Has everything but the mix.

All around great show from a great run of shows. This China quickly moves into a IKYR-feel, then a great Feeling Groovy Jam. The Rider is stunningly good and the music just lifts off and takes wing.

Even by '73 standards this is hotter than hot. Listen to the whole concert: Not one clunker.

Top form '73 in a spectacular show from first note to finish. Truckin'>TOO>IKYR just mindbending. First set is a shitkickin' country bender. All good.
