![]() While not exactly "Dark Star," you know what they're getting at. ![]() I didn't find this great shot from Tivoliįinally, the country melody gives way to an astonishing jam. Though not as mature, these versions are certainly exploratory and exciting! Again, thanks in large part to Keith. The "China" > "Rider" is awesome!! They feel out new spaces on the transition, and over the course of the tour, I'm starting to think we're going to see the beginnings of the beautifully composed section that is showcased in '73-'74 versions. It's almost like they reached a state of mind-meld on this song, one of my favorite Bobby tunes. ![]() As Blair Jackson comments in the liner notes, "Let us now praise Keith Godchaux." I can't say a bad thing about any of the songs in the first set, but I need to draw particular attention to the "Black-Throated Wind" and the "China" > "Rider." Keith does a phenomenal job on "BT Wind" complementing Bobby's guitar work and vocals. The show gets of to an impressive start with an energetic, well played version of "Truckin'" to open the show. The band is clearly firing on all cylinders from the start, and the jam, while not profound, is definitely exciting.
