2nd one ever, and it seems like they're still getting it together. Nicely stripped down and clear vocals. Historically interesting.

Massive enthusiasm, Jerry sings himself hoarse. Brilliant, in spite of poor AUD quality.

All the inferno-intensity of the great '72s (yeah, those ones) condensced to 14min. Only reason not here is the B- AUD quality. Don't miss it!

AUD-only supernova, not for the SBD-only folks. The band is so tight, the arc or the song just exactly perfect.

Listen past the saturated AUD murk and behold a masterpiece. High energy, hitting the highlights and ending on a perfect feedback whine. Great show.

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.

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.

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