China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
March 26, 1973
Baltimore Civic Center

Also agree and will relisten to Nassau. And I associate Feb more with 72, as I think I wrote under the C>R on 2/15, which ranks high in my book.
Dark Star

The Ark

… and the profound musical outburst after the first verse @ 11min leaves an enduring impression on the grateful head
The Other One
Nov. 22, 1972
Austin Municipal Auditorium

On being Phil's punching bag: the privilege is mine.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Nov. 30, 1980
Fox Theatre

+1 here for the puppy upper majority. Was not at the show, but got the tape soon thereafter and have been groovin ever since.
Cream Puff War
Nov. 19, 1966
Fillmore Auditorium
