Stunning version. Sung with lots of passion, and during the solo, Jerry lets Wolf run loose and lets her howl. Great version from a great show!

This is heady!! Phil and Bill have a really beautiful conversation during this jam. The whole band is just on, an inverse Dark Star if you will. Super super interesting themes here! Very powerful and spiritual. 73 really laid the foundation for 74 in so many unique ways. 73 is a super psychedelic year for the boys.

Phil and Bill What a jam

Jerry takes the lead during the jam and he does not disappoint. Really explosive playing with ever changing psychedelic and explorative musicianship. Jerry’s en fuego, seriously, killer licks on this one.

Peak dead. A perfect rendition.
Big River

Such a fun version! You can tell the band is just riding a good wave of energy and for me, Jerry’s solos can make or break a Big River for me and that first solo just had me picking my jaw up from the floor. Goes from a real tight rockin beat and in the middle of Jerry’s second solo switches to a groovey syncopated beat. Super fun! Also shout out to that one guy in the audience yelling his heart out for Samson and Delilah. Made me chuckle
