Playin' In The Band
Aug. 12, 1972
Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

I prefer the piano being high in the mix,and 13 minutes is a nice length for me..I grew to love the 10/12 minuters from Europe 72 and 20plus is a little more than i usually care for in a Playin jam..Again,if i was THERE and dosed,perhaps,the band could play it all evening,for me..This is a great period for PITB.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
June 21, 1971
Chateau d'Herouville

Its 1971 and i love Billys drums during this era:Really upfront,punchy,crunchy and in your face-tight drumming indeed..I agree,its cool hearing an early reading,knowing what this pairing would become in 73-74..China>Rider is the music i would choose to introduce new listeners to,who hadnt heard the GD before-...As for which one...Hmmm.
Eyes Of The World

San Diego International Sports Arena

This needs more attention- Hidden amongst the huge Other One medley is this very kind reading of eyes of the world-how the Branford one has 100+ and this only 10 votes suggests this show has been overlooked..Ive been appreciating Weirs rhythym guitar recently- he KNOWS how to compliment the great Barcia.Phils also hot to trot.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Nov. 14, 1973
San Diego International Sports Arena

Amazing China>Rider with a huge-never ending transition..Feelin very groovy! This show is the bees knees,the Other One suite is a Dead masterclass- maybe overshadowed by Pauley Pvln,but it should have more love than this..Cheers Donnie.
He's Gone

Grugahalle

Yeah man-the Dead were great this evening,this show has also a killer Sugaree and Roosters also hot..Apparantly Pete Townshend helped to arrange some decent gear to keep Jerry n Rock straight for these shows- Im guessing it was pretty good tackle,Jerry sounds ace!
