This one is the sound of a band that knows it can do pretty much anything. Smooth and fiery.

I want to thank 007 for saying all probably that needs to be said in describing this scorcher. I also want to thank DarkStar67 for his or her enterprising use of the semi-colon. Talk about bad-ass.

Look at you, you sprawling gem: hiding in plain sight on Dave's Picks. They go into so many strange rooms in the funhouse and dart back out again into a hallway of social responsibility. Optimum Grade.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Jan. 3, 1970
Fillmore East

China Cat retains some of its whimsical charms of yore, but worry not: guitars buzz right thru on amps. Update: Jeez-O-Frempkin! Ferocious. Everyone works through his lunch break. That's all I'm saying.

The level of consistency of Tennessee Jeds in May 77 is uncanny. Not able to be canned. This is another slice of heaven from a sweeeeeet show. All cylinders.

Concertgebouw

Such a juicy period for China > Rider - this one has its own jaunt. I super dig it, especially the China Cat (which is groovy).
