China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 24, 1974
Winterland Arena

A mellow cat, hard charging into a blissful transition through a groovy MLB back again into the slinky bounding of an approaching rider flying down through the blistering heat of a colorado freight train-- a deep groove cooks this Rider, until you know it well, and when it concludes the pair has already punched you head first into oblivion.

Edit to my previous comment, Carrion_Crow has found my mistake. In-fact I was made confused by the lack of listing on setlist.net, as it turns out from multiple places, including the Archive, it seems that the Early show that took place on 2/14 included a Lovelight. The setlist.net I presume does not account for the early show. My apologies, guys.

Phil and Jerry trade notes and space is entered with tripodial aliens bounding with massive steps. Garcia drags this fatal space into a tiger where the forest shakes. The dimensions coalesce into a slipknot before the space expands again into the verse. Gets deep.
