They come charging out of the gate to open a great, maybe underrated Texas tour. Great opener.

Atlanta Municipal Auditorium

If you can get past some severe tape wobble and speed issues, the mix is oddly clear and Jerry's ideas are just off the chain. Completists only.

Harding Theatre

A short but fascinating star, starts way out, filled with melodicism and beauty, almost yearns for the TOO>MAMU to emerge out of it. Give it a chance.

Jerry's Strat sound is so perfect here. This whole show (and the 6th) highlight the sound of this era perfectly.

They're having a great time here, you can tell. Even the monitor problems are the source of fun.

Wild space.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Boston Garden

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.
