War Memorial

You mentioned his tone— this show is a late peak for Alligator (it’s already starting to sound like Wolf, probably because of gear changes but also his approach)

Garcia is very high and clear in the mix, to excellent effect
Row Jimmy

Boston Garden

Top version, with a relatively brisk pace
Mexicali Blues
April 2, 1973
Boston Garden

I often skip this song, particularly pre-80s. Maybe it’s the superb sound quality, but I really like this one.
