Wow!! KEZAR 1973!!
If you like long shows this ones a monster. The sound of the instruments on this one are just beautiful esp. Jerry's guitar. China>Rider is one of my all time favorites even with a cut right after China.
Would buy 2 copies of DP's, or even DL's volume #1?!
2nd Best show ever, best ever w/o a Darkstar
Hey now!
If you have never heard this show you are certainly missing out. For not having a Darkstar, this show hits some of the most amazing spaces. The He's Gone has wonderful Cosmic Charlie phrasing from Bobby and a really funky ragtime injection from Keith. The final vocal chorus from the band on He's Gone is nothing short of mind blowing. Then there's the transition from He's Gone into Truckin' with more of Bobby's "Ode to Cosmic Charlie" and some of Jerry's best playing of the year, just absolutely gorgeous. Only 2-13-70 bests this music, and 2-13-70 should not even count because it is from an entirely different universe. Everything after Truckin' is spot on- including the best Sugar Magnolia ever. Billy just attacks Sugar Mag as soon as Bobby even hints at playing the song and when Bobby yells, "easy now," it is just plain delerium. PLEASE RELEASE THIS SHOW. It would be really cool to see a release of this show co-packed with 5-26-93, the last great jam. THANK YOU GRATEFUL DEAD!

Kezar 73
It was my first concert and first Dead show. I was 13 years old and made the mistake going with my best friend and my girlfriend. My best friend ended up with my girlfriend, so I hung out with my bro and partied with him and got into the music to forget about it. NRPS, Waylen Jennings were great also from what I remember!! I don't remember much else. My other older brother crashed out on the lawn because the concert was long(thats what I appreciate about the Dead). I remember telling people at school that I went to the concert. Someone replied, "why see the Dead when you could have gone to see Led Zepplin the next week at Kezar. I don't regret it at all now!!

One of the best
oh yea....this was one show that really stands out in my memory.....waylon and the riders were terrific.....and the boys were really on target the whole show......the billing of waylon and the boys was fantastic.....only foreshadowed by my all time billing duo.....the Who and the Woody Herman Orchestra......look back with such great memories of this show and many others i saw mostly at winterland that year......thanks for listenin.....love peace and long live jerry and the rose boys!!!!...jim
