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.

Rossevelt Stadium

Crunchy power-vibe to this one. Doesn't quite have the floating, mesmerizing effect of some others, but instead a more hard-rocking feel. Special.

Damn right!

This is perfect in every way. I don't know what bug crawled up someone's ass to turn this into a way to talk smack about Pigpen, but whatevs. Pig adds a beautiful mellow and understated whooshing touch behind the perfect harmonies. There's a reason they played it together, guy.

Hearing this in it's total sequence is so mind-bendingly glorious that I can't imagine why it took me so long to get back to this one. What a goddamned triumph to what was arguably the most consistently brilliant tour of their history.

Dude420 is 100% right. This is their farewell kiss-of-weird to Europe. The band was never the same again, and here's a love letter.
