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.

Kiel Auditorium

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

Indianapolis State Fair Coliseum

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.

They Love Each Other

Indianapolis State Fair Coliseum

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

Bird Song
April 29, 1971
Fillmore East

Played a full step lower than in later years.
Hard to Handle

Fillmore East

Jerry soloing behind Pig's lead here (and elsewhere) is too hot. Get's the sap running.
Sugaree

Olympic Center

This is a perfect version: Energetic, but not cokey, clear vocals, and soaring, driven, take-control solos. I'll take this ride anytime.
Turn On Your Love Light
Aug. 6, 1971
Hollywood Palladium

Great vintage dead. Everyone was on for the show and Pig was blazing from beginning to end. Think I'll (a year later) add that around 18:00 they get into some very cool melodic inventions. Nice nice nice.
El Paso
Aug. 6, 1971
Hollywood Palladium

Would love to hear it, but the versions of this date on the Archive with El Paso seem to be DPs, not-for-streaming. Any ideas why the different songlists for this great date?
