Wooden and crunchy. Nice interplay between Jerry and Phil. Vince blows little zephyrs.

So much Dead to soothe my soul, and this is some of it. Tight.

Lloyd Noble Center - University of Oklahoma

The Other One
Aug. 20, 1972
San Jose Civic Auditorium

Capital Centre

Awesome jam at the end--that type mostly particular to the Dead's later period in which the jam doesn't seem to move linearly through time.

Greek Theater

A good version. Spring '83 has some good shows, for sure.
Eyes Of The World
Dec. 18, 1973
Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

A good version.
Greatest Story Ever Told

Civic Center

This is the version that made me fall in love with this tune.
