Raw and raucous, this one packs quite a wallop for its size.

A mellow version featuring a rather unique outro portion for ’73. Truckin’>Eyes>Stella

One of those ‘I can’t believe it’s not here yet’s. This thing was forged from hot iron.

The satisfying conclusion of a good sequence. A sibling of 11/13/72.

Bobby is pretty good on this one. It's right after 'Promised Land'.

Tight. The first solo is a good one.

Nice transition and even better soloing during the Fire. A more 'pure' version than that from 8 days later. Thanks for leading me to this one.

Thanks to 'Mandojammer' on the archive for leading me to this show via his 1984 project.

Gotta give this one the old bump. A nice, energetic show opener that features some good guitar work from Jerry. One listen will tell you this one is clearly underrated (as is 9/19/90).
