Maybe just another Wheel, but this show, especially after the Lay Me Down, felt to be all about recovering after saying good-bye to Brent.....

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....

Hypnotic is the word. After a raggedy great China-Rider and cool El Paso.
Eyes Of The World

Nassau Coliseum

One of the best Eyes ever. And the one the next night is nearly as strong.

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