Downs of Santa Fe

More sinister than seductively psychedelic. -> A fairly uptempo China Doll, forming one of my favorite ’83 combos.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
June 19, 1989
Shoreline Amphitheatre

Just ferocious by the end of Rider, but there’s lots to enjoy all the way through this combo.

Ramble On Rose

Stanley Theatre

Much like the Philly version a week earlier, this one really shines.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Sept. 28, 1972
Stanley Theatre

Subtly experimental transition jam seems to hint at “Feelin’ Groovy” without stating the theme outright.

Greatest Story Ever Told
Sept. 26, 1972
Stanley Theatre

Just two days before one of the consensus favorites, this version is BLAZING.

They Love Each Other
May 26, 1973
Kezar Stadium

Maybe the best damn version I've ever heard.
Eyes Of The World
July 31, 1982
Manor Downs

Love the atonal Brent-led jam out of this Eyes into Drums.
The Eleven
Aug. 23, 1968
Shrine Auditorium

The E minor jam at the end is perhaps the most ferocious of such jams that I've heard.
Playin' In The Band
June 22, 1973
Pacific Coliseum

Oh wow. One of the very best jams I've heard from summer '73. Covers a lot of ground — hard to believe it's only 18 minutes.
Box of Rain
June 22, 1973
Pacific Coliseum

Some stellar contributions from Keith here -- but I guess the same could be said for most '73 Dead.
