Builds to a nice climax after some interesting lines from Garcia. Whole show is worth a listen.

Ends a great Set II sequence. Listen to the drummers play along with the whistle blower in the audience!

If this had been tracked along with the preceding "Playin,'" everyone would have said "of course." This whole second set is killer.

Exploratory version right out of "Terrapin." Donna sounds great, and Phil leads the jam.

The transition into the "Terrapin Station" material is particularly strong, with powerful playing from Keith.

Hot shit (and that "Okie" is too funny, given the context). It's been on my list, but I haven't heard anything from this run before. Can't wait to tuck in after hearing this!

Hot and light at the same time. Some deadly thumps from Phil too!

Some nice playing! Have yet to hear a '73 "HCS" that's not worth a listen.

Totally agree, and there's some beautiful music during the transition. Grendel, you heard this yet?

Hell yeah! It's a thick version with everyone going off on it at once. And listen to Bob go!
