The Other One
Oct. 31, 1970
School Gymnasium, S.U.N.Y.

A barnburner that suffers a bit from compressed sound quality (and a mic. problem), but still hot & worth a spin. Cryptical outro gets going nicely.

Great forward, driving pulse to this one. Sounds like the had a blast playing it.

Kind a chaotic mess, but with a shredding outro which extends the jam for 8 minutes. A strange, cool interpretation for SS fans like me.

Jerry at his most angelic, comes after Bobby at his most satanic. Beautiful stuff.

The jam kickstarts the band around minute 3, and they go from sleepyish to electric haywire.

Thanks darkstar67! I'll check that out. I love how the Tapers Section just keeps on keeping on. I dig the Tobin Matrix for this show too :https://archive.org/details/gd1976-06-10.matrix.tobin.84985.sbeok.flac16/gd76-06-10d2t07.flac

This moves through phases along the way but gets there in style! Hits brilliant experimental patches and flirts at weirdness (never really getting there) when all at once-blam-o! It lands you in... BIG RIVER?!? What a mind-fuck that must have been for the Heads in attendance. Gotta love them for such spontaneity.

Don't let a scuffy AUD scare you away from this pristine Cassidy. Bobby and Donna are in sweet harmony, and the band has that 'hot mellow' perfection: Not rushing, but scorching earth. Jerry swoops and soars, riding thermals behind that Cadillac like an eagle chasing prey.
