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.

The Other One
Nov. 20, 1973
Denver Coliseum

Tremendous flow from one theme to another, and then it falls nicely into Stella. A bit low on the list, I'd say.
Ramble On Rose

Baltimore Civic Center

Indeed, not a great rendereing per se, but it is definitely very cool when you hear those chords come banging in to kick this one off right after the Wolfman got the crowd to 'Light up'. And Jerry nails the Wolfman part, too. Definitely heady.

Part of a great sequence. Jerry does a good job of singing his way through the lyrics that he temporarily can't seem to recall.

If we count the lengthy jam at the end of this one (which we do around these parts), then this one is really, really good. The jam even has a fleshed out WRS Prelude (it's really not WRS--that was months away from its premier) that gets a little jam spread on it. It then gives way to more jamming. This is really good stuff. But start with the He's Gone first and let the whole sequence play through.

Very nice version featuring good singing, sweet fills from Keith, and gentle power from Jerry on the outro jam. Part of a great sequence, as well.
