Subtle power and perfect execution. The "retirement" shows are full of pure, clear playing.

Honolulu Civic Auditorium

Relaxed (Hawaii, natch) vibe without a Pig rap, but the band sounds just outta sight and Pig is on. Good times here.

Honolulu Civic Auditorium

Powerful vocals and a tight sound in front of what sounds like only 100 people.

You've never heard anything like this before. Out take from American Beauty era, mis-dated on Archive, but absolutely wonderful.

A+ goddamned good, keeps me bobbing and weaving. Hard throbbing, and into a killer TOO, too.

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

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

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
April 2, 1973
Boston Garden

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