The Other One
Nov. 1, 1968
Silver Dollar Fair

Just have to add that this Other One has possibly the most heavy and intense playing I've ever heard, it's a must-listen
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 2, 1973
Boston Garden

Forgot a description, but this one is a great Garcia workout; Feeling Groovy is a stunning early version of the jam...

Fillmore West

This is THE Dark Star!!!!

Adams Field House, U of Montana
