All but a few of the rest are above average. Still a work in progress - also out of tune. It Must Have Been the Roses is the 2nd one (sounds like Bobby wanted Big Railroad - which was on the shelf at the time). Hoo hoo game on! After that it's hot through a great Playin' - though beware Donnaskreech™. The Jack Straw is good but these would be awesome in the fall. They had only played 4 in '73 before this. Candyman is where things first gel (Bobby tried for a Big River), though it's out of tune. Donna comes out on Beat it on Down the Line-5, which is better than previous nights. Blues (post-rewrite) - there were mix/board/PA problems every night of this run and it takes several songs to sort. It's a better show than the next (the Cow Palace) overall and a consistent run. I recall having some of this as filler on a hot source that used to circulate (where did the AUDS go?). The complete Wall of Sound touring rig, with the center speakers and all of the McIntosh amps, premiered in Reno in May).
#CHINA CAT SUNFLOWER WINTERLAND ARCHIVE#
Keep the archive flowing.Įnd of first run of the year, testing the mic cancellation system and the new cabinets that would soon be stacked into the Wall of Sound (the wall stacks were first erected a month later at the Cow Palace. Thanks to the archives and all who allow my ears and mind to be continually to be blown away by the amazing unique sound of the GD. I know there are other nights during ‘74 that are equally if not more impressive but you certainly will not be disappointed with this show. Just a solid show from a solid 3 night run of amazingness. I have no doubt that if Bob Dylan were to listen to this version of Its All Over Now Baby Blue he’d be psyched (in some way, shape or form) and might shed a tear or two for his fallen brother. Throughout the entire show they are all equally locked in on a musical telepathy that permeates our speakers and provides a multi-dimensional sound that welcomes and energizes all who listen.
Towards the end of Dew during the jam Bobby and Phil lock in and provide a very flexible platform for Jerry to just elevate the energy to infinity and beyond. Cornell ‘77 would never have occurred w/o performances like this. From DS on just WOW! mind blown! That Morning Dew is off the charts. There’s a reason that this particular night gets more of the attention than the previous two nights and that is they were firing on all cylinders with a smooth, fluid show that aside from a few glitches at the beginning of US Blues is virtually flawless, unless one is hypersensitive to particulars. A thoroughly solid show! Words will not embellish the quality of the tunes, nor will they adequately add anything to what other heads have already commented upon, but I just cannot help offering up how blown away I am after listening to these Feb.
