Drums -> Space

Madison Square Garden

Bill and Mickey start chaotically but reel it back by 04:30 and get groovy. Space feels like exploring a classic Alien planet from an old serial.

Funky af drums coming out of a cosmic Dark Star and THEN into an Other One! Bliss!

Keiths first show. Saddens me that I had to be the one to add this. It's good!

A beautiful rendition of Pigpen's most overlooked/depressing song. Could have made it onto the E72 reissue as easily as HYH did. I prefer it tbh.

Not necessarily special by itself, but a great afterglow from a face-melting Other One > Bobby Mcgee > Other One.
Me and Bobby McGee

Concertgebouw

Gets a vote because of the monumental Other One that came before it, but this is pretty good by itself, too.
He's Gone

Concertgebouw

Deffo the best. I can see why this was chosen for the E72 album.
The Other One
May 10, 1972
Concertgebouw

Get's real experimental. Love this E72 vol, it has some real great performances overall, including this cosmic Other One. Soft, spacey jams always beat the loud ones.
