Rock music as it should be. The band is really on this night and this song just flies.

Donna and Bobby really sing it-NO screeching. Their singing throughout this June 76 run is just fine. For all you Donna haters, listen to this

Solid,well sung, nice little solo, and it is so sweet after the huge UJB>Wharf Rat>DS>Sugar Mag that comes before it. It just fits in so well.

China Doll

Dane County Coliseum

Others have pointed out what a stellar show this is and how the D.S>Eyes>China Doll is 45 minutes of sheer Dead heaven. However, I'd just like to say that as a stand alone, this is one of my top 5 China Dolls. Great singing from Jerry and all round playing by all the band

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Academy of Music

Some years seem to be the best for some songs and China>Riders from 1972 are it for me.

Hope we all have a hippie New Year. Have fun boys and girls. I'm running up to this New Years eve by playing N.Y.E shows. Plus, can I plug the January 2nd 1972 show(again!)? You won't regret it. Love and Metta CB
