Stella Blue

Star Lake Amphitheater

Jerry's guitar scorches throughout, with genuine pin drop moments, followed by sweeping beauty. Coda laments for Stella are short but sweet.

Let Me Sing Your Blues Away
Sept. 8, 1973
Nassau Coliseum

Poor Keith. He sang it 6 times over the next 2 weeks and never sang it again. Ah well. Mighty great show though!!!!! This tumbles into what starts as a bit of a ramshackle China Cat and builds into a truly magnificent Rider, complete with a really groovy Groovy Jam, as it was taking shape in late '73!!!
Truckin'
Sept. 8, 1973
Nassau Coliseum

Groovy and laid back til it hits about the 5 minute mark and then it turns raucous and wild. And yeah, the NFA-GDTRFB is incredible. Underrated show big time! Night before is just as strong, both at Nassau....
He's Gone

Nassau Coliseum

Hypnotic is the word. After a raggedy great China-Rider and cool El Paso.
Eyes Of The World
Sept. 7, 1973
Nassau Coliseum

One of the best Eyes ever. And the one the next night is nearly as strong.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

A ridiculously epic and rip-roaring night in Nassau! And the night before in Nassau is just as great! Two amazing Eyes both nights!!!
