Wooden and crunchy. Nice interplay between Jerry and Phil. Vince blows little zephyrs.

So much Dead to soothe my soul, and this is some of it. Tight.

When the going gets weird, Weir sings the headlight part.

Eyes Of The World
Oct. 11, 1977
Lloyd Noble Center - University of Oklahoma

This one doesn't have the shimmering lyricism of, say, 5/22/77, but the logic of Jerry's phrasing is a hoot.

The Other One
Aug. 20, 1972
San Jose Civic Auditorium

Needs to be on the map. Features a jam that seems to be based on Skydog's 'Little Martha' and a nice 'Tiger Jam', but that's not all...

They Love Each Other
Nov. 9, 1979
Memorial Auditorium

Sweet! I love the sound of that young Tiger. Lacey and dreamy solo with enough oomph, here and there, for contrast. Very nice rendition overall. Be sure to check out 4/16/78 for another version which features thrilling exploits on high-tension wires.
Ramble On Rose
July 3, 1978
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

Yup, impassioned vocals and a nice solo that rambles wonderfully through the changes.
Terrapin Station
Dec. 28, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Fantastic and undeservedly overlooked.
The Other One
Jan. 22, 1978
McArthur Court, U of Oregon

Darkstar67: I haven't yet listened to this show! It's one of those that, like a special wine or some good bud, I'm saving for later. And it does have some company in certain other legendary shows that I'm sitting on, as well. Something to wonder about and look forward to! Anyway, it's good to see that it has yet another feather in its cap in the form of a big NFA, as the NFA from 4/22/78 is one of my personal favorites.
