The Other One
Heady goodness all around. Definitely taken OUT THERE...some fine grooves too
30
He's Gone
He's Gone -> The Other One -> Wharf Rat ; Beatiful transition into the other one
21
Wharf Rat
Great version.
4
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
Extremelly fun early performance of Half step. Jerry has a real cool bounce to his playing. His solos are VERY tasty on this GEM.
9
Brown Eyed Women
Smoking hot a song they just had dialed in in 1972. Blistering guitar from Jerry really a great version.
6
Truckin'
Has the number one song in Turlock California introduction. Short exit jm due to a broken string, Bobby announced this from stage
7
El Paso
Bobby does his best Tina Turner impression when introducing this song. Fun and love Bobby's bad humor
8
Cold Rain and Snow
Jer's got somethin to say and it's URGENT. Love Keith's playin here.
12
Playin' In The Band
Jer bites down hard all over this and Phil is a monster - solid
15
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
China Cat shines bright with strong transition jam - Jer belts out the headlight line in the Rider and Phil barrel rolls all through the pocket.
7
Sugar Magnolia
Rip this one in hot style for the Boulder Nectar.
8
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
The entire stadium of heads got their speeding ticket punched by the gang on this one.
8
Rockin' Pneumonia
Cause it's fun - that's why.
2
One More Saturday Night
The rockin' encore for the longest concert of 1972.
4
Sugaree
Continues one of the great stretches of peak Dead right after Veneta. Great jam, B- sound quality though.
5
Bird Song
Don't let the murky and C+ sound stop you from this gem. Would someone with C. Miller's phone number ask him about this show, please?
4
Jack Straw
Give it a listen and you will hear a Straw that's aces - what a tight little nugget.
4
Ramble On Rose
Collectively nail this with some X-factor swing and swagger.
3
Loser
Looking for a new favorite Loser with tone and hot licks - look no further.
2
Promised Land
Just another '72 gem of a show, AUD isn't A1 but the playing is
2
Me and My Uncle
Slick acid cowboy
3
Tennessee Jed
So many Jeds in '72, just another great version, AUD isn't perfect but everyone is on.
