The Other One
March 3, 1971
Fillmore West
Jerry's galloping right out of the gate, with a Gibson in hand. In March and April Jerry swapped the Strat for a Les Paul. This partially explains why this O1 sounds so unique. This was also the 2nd time they played this song since Mickey's departure. They where the original Warlocks again with 6 years of playing together, and it shows! Even Pig is making a strong contribution on organ. And Bobby's laying down strong rhythm support for Jerrys energetic and inventive lead lines. And of course, Billy was now free to lock in with Phil, who was feeling Jerry's every move. This O1, along with the 02-19 version, kind of set a template for the structure of this song, at least until Keith arrived 8 months later. This is a really good find, Mercury!
