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.

I'm going to put this one above Merriweather for Brent bringing on the funk, Bobby's tweaking wah, and just how much it brought me back to what was probably the first Dead song I ever knew by name.

This one swings with great purpose. It builds up and up, and blows up with a nice smooth climax.

Philzone nirvana here. At a couple of points it almost sounds like he's forcing the band into a Supplication jam that never quite coagulates. Other than that, this confirms my hypothesis that the man has ten fingers on each hand. What a monster musician!

I agree that that the Devils make this one special. It has that amped up and kicking on top of the beat feel of the speedy early 80s versions. The segue is smoother than "proper" sounding like a DJ blending two tracks as much as a typical GD transition.

Jerry and Donna like a choir of angels on this one.
