hard to believe this big beast hasn't been tagged yet: Experimental, interesting, and at 23min, a nice long ride.

Only the 2nd one they played after it went into circulation, and it conveys all the emotion and poetry of this wonderful song. Sing something Phil!

For a song notoriously difficult to pull off live, this one is just beautiful. Succinct, harmonious, deliberate: All good, in spite of AUD quality.

Great transition into Rider here. Really strong '72 ensemble playing. Sound quality is only about a B though.

Solid heady version with a great build-up. Sound is only B quality though.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

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.

Totally overlooked concert.
