Best first listen: June 10, 1973 · Robert F. Kennedy Stadium · Washington, DC, US
This long RFK show opens with Morning Dew and grows into a three-set day with Eyes Of The World, Here Comes Sunshine, and Dark Star > He's Gone > Wharf Rat > Truckin'. Set three adds Merl Saunders, Dickey Betts, and Butch Trucks, giving the closing Dylan, blues, and rock-and-roll tunes a bigger jam-band feel.
Another strong choice: February 15, 1973 · Dane County Coliseum · Madison, WI, US
Madison is where the post-Pigpen band sounds newly elastic, jazzy, and curious. It is a strong bridge from fall 1972 space into the Eyes of the World era.
Another strong choice: March 29, 1990 · Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum · Uniondale, NY, US
Complete Nassau Coliseum show from spring 1990 with jazz saxophonist Branford Marsalis, who was invited by bassist Phil Lesh and sat in on 'Bird Song' in the first set and the entire second set except 'Drums.'
First catalog performance: February 9, 1973 · Roscoe Maples Pavilion, Stanford University · Palo Alto, CA, US
Last catalog performance: July 6, 1995 · Riverport Amphitheatre · Maryland Heights, MO, US
