The Other One
Oct. 24, 1972
Performing Arts Center

An unusual ‘The Other One’>’He’s Gone’>’The Other One’ sandwich that pheatures a phantastic ‘Philo Stomp’ and excellent group interplay.

They Love Each Other
May 14, 1978
Providence Civic Center

Features a beautiful solo from Jerry that doesn't falter despite its intricacy. You can hear the crowd roar its approval on the excellent SBD.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 22, 1974
Winterland Arena

Twangy on top and chubby below. Phil's mighty sonics in the second break of CCS could be dangerous--don't listen to this while ice fishing!

The only known version the boys played and they nail it. Check the super smooth transition into the only known 'My Babe'. Only circulates in AUD.

Playin' In The Band
Oct. 18, 1972
Fox Theater

A big Playin’ sandwich. This Playin’ moves like a ping pong ball down a river, crashing through boiling white-hot rapids, whirling in little eddies and sometimes just barely passing over patches of submerged moss in the thinnest of microrivulets before rejoining the main flow.
Truckin'
Oct. 2, 1972
Springfield Civic Center

The 'Truckin' here is solid, but it's when 'Drums' (Billy! with some Phil, too) kicks in that things really get heady, leading to a pretty unique 'Feelin' Groovy' jam that is at turns bluesy and jazzy. It should be noted that this sequence ends with a great 'Morning Dew'.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
Nov. 2, 1977
Field House - Seneca College

I'm with you on this one, man. Excellent stuff. And Dave/Dick like(d) it too, as it is some of the 'filler' on DP 34.

Some good stuff happens here. Check it out!
Big River
Sept. 19, 1990
Madison Square Garden

This things just smokes. Also, Road Trips Vol. 2 No. 1 would probably have been helped by including some of the absolutely blistering first set performances that occurred during this incredible run at the MSG. You can say that again! Woops!
