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'.

A very strange but rollicking version. Yes, Weir sings the headlight part (was Jerry fixing his guitar?) Also, check out Phil's lines at the beginning of CCS. Oh yeah, and even though it would be nearly a year and a half before the 'Feelin' Groovy' jam made its first appearance in the CCS-IKYR transition, you can definitely hear a little hint of it here. Thanks to CarrionCrow for the heads up on this show.
