Phildown St. opener in the ginormo dome at Syrabuse. Phil makes this one groovy.

China Doll
March 22, 1973
Utica Memorial Auditorium

Gold Here. SUBLIME - this is where all the soft touches come together. Bob is especially deft with the underlying patterns. Phil is perfect.

I'm a sucker for China Dolls - this one has Jerry delivering very dreamy vocals on this one.

Greatest Story Ever Told
Nov. 11, 1973
Winterland Arena

A very fast & rockin’ take - definition of a “barn burner” as noted above.
Candyman
Nov. 22, 1972
Austin Municipal Auditorium

For what it’s worth - this Candyman is very close to perfection and if you care to spin you might just agree. The tone in the solo - great Lincoln’s beard!
Turn On Your Love Light
May 30, 1971
Winterland Arena

Super foot stompin and hollerin’ on the rideout...
The Music Never Stopped
June 11, 1992
Knickerbocker Arena

Jerry soars delightfully over Bobby’s distorted whammy stylings for the end jam- A+ grade racket.
Drums
April 28, 1971
Fillmore East

Gosh sakes you are on the money there, absolutely even more impressive and yeah I should have remembered since the solo drummer years are some of my favorites...old age is a bitch.
