The Other One
Oct. 29, 1973
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.

Turn On Your Love Light
May 7, 1970
DuPont Gym - MIT

Pig's line "and after all that" coming out of a fast paced chase through the jam-a-thon is pretty funny too. This is a big barn-burning number, and could really stand a good cleanup so that the audiophobes can listen to it without fear. Really, heads, this is under-rated, and should be much higher.
Easy Wind

Clearly one of the most inspired and radically jammed versions with fantastic power. Does anyone else hear in Jerry's solo musical references to traded solos on "The End" off of Abbey Road? In any case, it's blasting and oh-so-good.
New Speedway Boogie

Or a bone in its nose. There's some deep darkness to it, and it grooves beautifully.
I Know You Rider

DuPont Gym - MIT

Performed as a ballad. A beautiful different interpretation. Lovely warm guitar sound in spite of the B-quality AUD that's suffered a touch of damage.
Dancin' in the Streets

Beacon Theatre

Should definitely go higher on the list. The '76s are all just so good, but this one has special tightness to it - and a great Betty Board.
