Grateful Dead   12/19/1973

Curtis Hixon Convention Hall, Tampa, FL
Recording SHNID 8602
Media SHN   3 discs
Notes aud [2006-08-28] Quality is A-/B+. Crowd not intrusive or annoying. Possible matrix candidate except most of HCS is missing, there is occasional overload distortion, and the soundfield is narrow though it comes across as FOB. Don't know if its a "mono" recording. Show wise there is lots of music but not part of the best 73 shows despite being a DP. The PITB that ends set 1 is typical 73 good. Set 2 has 2 jam segments, one is WRS>LIG (not a fav for me) and then a He's Gone > Truckin > NBFBM > TOO > Stella. The DP left out the bass solo which was not too engaging for me. Dec 73 IMO is not the strongest month in 73 for consistent over the top must hear show.
