The Other One
Oct. 22, 1971
Auditorium Theatre
The others give Keith some space to feel his way around, and that makes this one unique (although I haven't compared it with other Fall '71 renditions). It certainly has more votes than the others. If you compare this one to, say, Summer '71 without Keith, you can really hear how many more directions they will go in in the future. This is very nice, and it's been years since I listened to it. I don't know how many of those 54 days (mostly in Sept.) they were rehearsing with the new guy, but he certainly sounds pretty much fully conversant with the long jam pieces.
