He's Gone
Sept. 28, 1972
Stanley Theatre

One of my all-time favorite He's Gones. Each piece moves with its own precision.

What he said.
Playin' In The Band
Aug. 21, 1972
Berkeley Community Theater

Garcia and Godchaux battle like Godzilla and Megalon, Sonny and Cher - and then make an uneasy peace. This is some sleek sleek business.
They Love Each Other
March 31, 1973
War Memorial

Yet another springy, delightful 1973 TLEO. Garcia's Strat, of course, skips through the proceedings with speed, agility, and a wink or two.
Me and My Uncle
Aug. 6, 1971
Hollywood Palladium

Like someone else mentioned, the paranoia of the Other One infects this version. Great tension, but also playfulness.
