Me and My Uncle
Nov. 17, 1971
Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Two things: (1) the middle of a searing Other One > MAMU > Other One fest and (2) Garcia loses his mind (or mine) at the end of the solo.

Drop dead gorgeous, lithe, and restaurant quality perfect.

Clear To Hell - Hear how a luscious Candyman absorbs a crowd in NC.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Capitol Theater

Lately I think of Port Chester. Fab 4 Alignment. Limber. Ambidextrous.

St. Stephen

Boston Tea Party

The peak is like a merry-go-round spinning out of and back into control and then, albeit briefly, out and in of control again.

The Other One
Feb. 5, 1969
Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Auditorium

I want to thank 007 for saying all probably that needs to be said in describing this scorcher. I also want to thank DarkStar67 for his or her enterprising use of the semi-colon. Talk about bad-ass.
The Other One
Oct. 22, 1971
Auditorium Theatre

Look at you, you sprawling gem: hiding in plain sight on Dave's Picks. They go into so many strange rooms in the funhouse and dart back out again into a hallway of social responsibility. Optimum Grade.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Jan. 3, 1970
Fillmore East

China Cat retains some of its whimsical charms of yore, but worry not: guitars buzz right thru on amps. Update: Jeez-O-Frempkin! Ferocious. Everyone works through his lunch break. That's all I'm saying.
Tennessee Jed
May 7, 1977
Boston Garden

The level of consistency of Tennessee Jeds in May 77 is uncanny. Not able to be canned. This is another slice of heaven from a sweeeeeet show. All cylinders.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
May 10, 1972
Concertgebouw

Such a juicy period for China > Rider - this one has its own jaunt. I super dig it, especially the China Cat (which is groovy).
