Notes: this sounds good, standing strong among the other great performances from this storied month in Dead history. " February 19, 2005 Reviewer: dr. flashback Subject: Don't Miss This! Wow, another great 73 show that I've had the pleasure to rediscover. Had a SBD tape of Set 2 years ago, and the Dark Star alone was enough to win me over. Never thought I'd find Set 1, so this is a real treat, even with the missing songs. It seems that other than Nov 73, this Spring tour was also a highlight for the year. 2/15, 2/19 and 3/24 all contain some unbelieveable jams. But now to Feb 22nd. A jaunty TLEO should get you dancing immediately, or check your pacemaker. And Bird Song really reached its apothosis in 1973 - this is a good example with Keith and Jerry weaving nice counterpoint above Phil's tasty bass. Speaking of Phil - he delivers a great vocal here on Box of Rain, a near perfect version! But as usual, they save the jams for last, and now we hear yet another reason to rank versions of 1973 Playin as the best. Jerry gives us both bubbly, funky wah wah riffs, as well as sparkling jazzy leads with pedals off. Complex poly-rhythms abound with Phil, Jerry and Keith bouncing beats off each other, then Jerry builds to a peak with screaming, rippling wah wah leads before the verse returns. And I can do without "Woman Enough" okay, but the fact that China>Rider is missing is a real crime. Because usually when they close the set with it - it's a real scorcher! Now for dessert! How many great Dark Star>Eyes combos are there in 1973? Too many to pick a best from, indeed. But this one evokes images of tripping by the window on a cold Feb. day, watching the colorful snowflake trails and sipping hot tea. Only 14 minutes, but beautifully mellow and dreamy. Finally, halfway thru they sing the verse, then expand into space complete with sleighbells before launching into a long, energetic Eyes. Phil, Bobby and Bill drive the train while Jerry fires off laser-like leads. Near the end they introduce an embryonic version of the "Slipknot" theme they would bring to perfection down the road. Maybe not the best version but hey, they've only played it 4 times so far here! And thank God the China Doll isn't missing. It's artfully delivered with soulful vocals from Jerry. A very strong 4 stars for this show! enjoy, Dr. Flashback ;-) January 03, 2005 Reviewer: southernflavour Subject: top marks Where did this show come from? Thank God I found it. I didn't know that these guys could play this well! November 07, 2004 Reviewer: sheikyerbouti Subject: Playin This is a very hot show and one of the great finds since I have been scouring this for shows. Playin is one of the best ever (I think) Dark Star>Eyes>China Doll is off the charts... GDTRFB and an unbelievable Casey Jones. Dane County gets all the fanfare from this tour and rightfully so however this stand alone and is not a weak derivative by any means. One of the ways I define a good show is is Jerry can make the guitar 'sing'. That is to say tweak it and pull sounds out of it that no one else can. The rising tide carries Phil and rest of them. In this show he does this about three dozen times more than you can count and takes you to another place with this music. July 17, 2004 Reviewer: dHazed Subject: SICK Show! This show is ridiculous. Awesome Dark Star>Fiery Ass Eyes! China Doll is gorgeous absolutely beautiful! What an incredible showing of these songs in their infancy! Great SBD... sounds amazing with headphones...listen to this one loud...The Best Band of All Time...smiling from ear to ear thanks Archive!"
