Some of the sweetest group vocal harmonies ever. How is this show not more highly rated?

Way up-tempo and crisp and groovy. This was Keith's first run of shows and their's popping creative energy throughout.

Bobby's voice sounds beautiful, one of his clearest, nicest vocal performances of this one.

Right about here a damn good show becomes an outrageously amazing show.

Exploratory and energetic, coming in the heart of an hour-long jam. Great musicality and clear communication between the boys here.

The Other One
Nov. 17, 1972
Century II Convention Hall

Not your old granny's The Other One - unless of course your old granny was that hot lady with the clean sunshine hanging out with the tapers.... Seriously though this is hot psychedelia that goes through all the phases, but doesn't have the hard metal edge of some from the era. Far far out, but never pushes you over the edge. A great show of their control and chaos, followed by a sublime Brokedown.

They're breathing as one, and this has some gorgeous, subtle interplay. Just perfect.

A few moments about a minute before they change time signatures into 6/8 for the TOO shift and it sounds almost like a Nobody's Fault But Mine jam - not quite, but just enough of Phil/Jerry interplay to suggest it was in the air.

No question, this one has a little extra chili pepper in it.

Simply on fire. Brilliant.
