Nice little bridge between Truckin & TOO

The jittery bridge between an epic, 19-min Truckin' and a pretty cool TOO...

Kicks off an epic 34-song show in style with an excellent solo from Keith!

The Other One
May 10, 1972
Concertgebouw

I ranked this fourth of the tour last year, but I now realize that was a mistake. I'd put it ahead of Bickershaw for third at least (had Paris first and Frankfurt second). Goes very far out and covers some crazy terrain, yet stays every bit as refined as the gorgeous venue it was performed in...A++

Bickershaw Festival

Fantastic 15-min pre-verse...on pace to be one of the best before it gives way to Drums and TOO after just 19:50
Good Lovin'
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

One of the most sophisticated versions ever...somehow jazzy and out there, yet still totally Good Lovin'
Playin' In The Band
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

One of the most gracefully intense jams I've heard...criminally underrated.

Fillmore East

There are 20 votes for the night before that actually belong to this one, as it wasn't played on the 13th...
