Eyes. The Casey Jones encore is heavily distorted, probably
due to equipment malfunction. The show is characterized by
equipment failure, including a several second dropout in
Promised Land. There is also a really weird burping noise in

COMMENTS        

The sound setup at this show was the first version of the 
Wall of Sound.  Sound mixing problems at the board during Promised 
Land.  According to reports from an eyewitness, this was the result of 
half the speakers frying. Very brief splice during Looks Like Rain.  
Complete Loose Lucy timing supercedes previous listing showing it cut 
at 4:59.  Splice in Playing In The Band at 8:38. Hard to tell how much 
is missing although it can't be more than a few minutes and could be 
only a few seconds.  Splice in Truckin' at 6:23.  Could be a minute or 
two missing here.

The first Eyes has quite a bit of exploratory jamming without dropping 
to that Dm riff (or whatever you want to call it), which is present to 
some degree in all other known '73 versions of the song.  Jerry plays 
the chord on the final notes of the song before changing to China Doll.  
By February 15, the change had been worked out.

The cut in Wave That Flag at 1:25 is missing a full chorus a after the 
second verse.  Before Sugar Magnolia, Bob says, " This one's our new 
single, broke big as hell in Pittsburgh...that's the truth, too."
During Casey Jones, a blown amplifier is audible in the mix.
{Playing In The Band [3:05] > Jam [13:#29] > Playing In The Band 
[2:25]}

The show has the first performances of Loose Lucy, Here Comes Sunshine, 
They Love Each Other, Eyes Of The World, China Doll and Wave That Flag.
Tape flips following Looks Like Rain, Here Comes Sunshine, They Love 
Each Other, and Ramble On Rose.  The following song begins, cuts and is 
restarted on the next side.

This is a solid and energetic show, with each song getting as full a 
performance as possible.  A slew of new songs performed as though they 
had been performed for years, particularly songs that would grow into 
staples of sets.
