The more I listen the more this becomes maybe my favorite post-Brent version. cgarces, I remember you mentioning you're not big on this song, but I'd be curious to hear your take on this version.

This could use a couple of daps. Best version of a year that was not the best for the band or this duo. Not an unmitigated classic, but still very good.

Nassau Coliseum

This "Other One" is such a delicious appetizer for the main course that is the "Dew." Listen up, this is explosive.

One of the best. Sweet as honey. Jerry sounds a little sharp vocally but I don't look to the Dead for perfection or shit like that. The passion is all there.
