The Other One

Kiel Auditorium

A massive, heavy, rocketship of a performance: Explosive liftoff, mining expedition to deep space, smoking craters, then a long sweet fast ride home.

A beautifully rendered rare treat with a nice emotional arc and sweet harmonies.

Hot building and building jam. One of those shows where just every song rocks. Nothing wrong here...

Great solos, tight ensemble playing kicking of the 2nd set from a great show. Energetic and blazing.

Tight and right. The band is charged up and having fun together. Great energy.

Great transition from CC too. There are a slight tuning issues though, though it's hard to hear on my system whether it comes from a slight tape wobble, or if both Bobby and Jerry have pulled flat in their upper registers.

I'd take the Charlie Miller remix over the link on this one. Seems a bit richer, less tinny. As for the music. Ohhhhhh, yes, this is the love. Reading the comments here, I'd say one thing overlooked is just how brilliantly Phil drives this from below throughout. That said, I like the Oct. 9th more for inventiveness and extended jams. Nothin' quite like that monster sound from '74, though.

Should be much higher on the list. Bobby's at his most primal, Jerry soloing at a million miles per hour, and the whole band rising up to the explosive climax. Hot stuff.

RoR rarely rates by me, but this one stands out for its extra oomph and brilliant vocals. This whole show/run is tremendous.
