I should get it in a couple of days. The Eyes and HCS jam seem to be highlights of this show based on the reviews.

The transition between the Weather Report Suite intro and the Eyes is one of my all-time favorite GD moments. Absolutely sublime stuff.

Definitely enjoying it.
Definitely enjoying it.
As with most 73, the playing is sublime.
My only complaint is my usual complaint about this period. The vocals sound shallow and a little thin & reedy.
I know it's a function of the mics the band had developed at the time, with the phase cancelling benefit.
That said, it's the reason 1973 is not a go-to year when I'm picking something out. I am enjoying this show a lot, it's massive, but I can't help wishing that maybe a good 83 would come out soon!

>>> it's the reason 1973 is not a go-to year when I'm picking something out.
73 seems to be the most chaotic of the "no-mickey" years.
71 is earthy
72 is the shit.
73 a bit weird
74 a rich deep complex beauty...but the psychadelic spark was hard to find under the beauty of the music.
75 - rarin to go, a beast in winter
76 - work mickey back in, slower and trippier
77 - the cocaine kicks in -> disco
78 - maybe a little too much cocaine?
79 - disco marries trippy
80 - meh, I think Phil admist to being drunk the entire year
81 - trippy starts to win out, Phil might still be drunk but the boys were starting to have fun again
82 - psychadelics win again
83 - more really good psychadelics
84 - heroin
85 - meh
86 - uggg
87 - Dylan
88 - meh
89 - good drugs again.
90 - awesome until Brent kicked.,
The end.

1973 is personally my
1973 is personally my favorite year. For me, less satisfying is all the other GD years. Once again to each his or her own.
Side note: 1969 ain't bad either, I just think the skill level of the musicianship is stronger 4 years later.
I was at this shoe & have decent quality boards starting from HCS, but it's nice having a high quality sound of the whole.
WIth the exception of Playin', the band is going through the songs in the first set, quickly. No noodleing 2 B found.
Jerry's singing is so on. As most times with Jerry, his emotions R are all there then some.
At the time, there is so much material that was new (meaning less then two years old).
IMHO, while the first set is decent, it is not spactacular.
Set 2 is a whole other matter. The jam after HCS is what kept me coming back 2 see this band.
Sure there are better shoes from this year, but listining 2 this is a treat.
