Show Notes
Widely considered one of The Grateful Dead's seminal performances, and certainly one of the very best of the universally acclaimed 1973 performing year, 6/10/73 is as synonymous with great Grateful Dead concerts as are 2/13/70, 8/27/72, and 5/8/77. There are few shows that deliver the goods to the extent of this concert, with it's statement-opener of "Morning Dew," through lengthy workouts on "Bird Song," "Playing In The Band," "Here Comes Sunshine," "Eyes Of The World," and an other-worldly "Dark Star." Add to this a nearly hour-long encore/third set featuring members of the Allman Brothers Band (with whom the Dead shared the bill at RFK in 1973), and you have not only one of the most unique shows in Grateful Dead history, but also one of the most exciting, inspired and powerful performances of the Dead's entire career. We're serving up the complete previously unreleased performance, with Plangent Processes tape restoration and speed correction, and mastering by Jeffrey Norman.
Note:
- The encore/third set featured guests Merl Saunders, as well as Dickey Betts and Butch Trucks of The Allman Brothers Band
- This was the first time "That's Alright Mama" was played.
- This was the first time "Train To Cry" was played.
- This was the final performance of "Wave That Flag."

"I was at the show the day before...June 9, 1973, Grateful Dead and Allman Bros. I was 14 and it was my first real concert. (Good way to start no doubt.) Hot as hell, no water, drank a bunch of bad fruit drinks they were selling, then a bunch of Riunite, Mateus and Ripple that was being passed around. No money for food. Got sick as hell on the DC Transit bus heading back home. Great memories"

"haven't ever given 73' a chance, I've been stuck on 77'-91' religiously for the past 8 years. Started checking 73'-76' out recently and I'm happy I did. This show is amazing man"

"The dark star into He's gone of this show is one for the books. The eyes jam is incredible. The morning dew opener is haunting and beautiful, one of my absolute favorite shows"

"A friend gave me this show from his tape collection way back in the early 80s. The Morning Dew always a favorite, the Playin' in the Band and Eyes of the World amazing. Thanks for this release."
