The Other One

Performing Arts Center

An unusual ‘The Other One’>’He’s Gone’>’The Other One’ sandwich that pheatures a phantastic ‘Philo Stomp’ and excellent group interplay.

They Love Each Other
May 14, 1978
Providence Civic Center

Features a beautiful solo from Jerry that doesn't falter despite its intricacy. You can hear the crowd roar its approval on the excellent SBD.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 22, 1974
Winterland Arena

Twangy on top and chubby below. Phil's mighty sonics in the second break of CCS could be dangerous--don't listen to this while ice fishing!

Mystery Train

The only known version the boys played and they nail it. Check the super smooth transition into the only known 'My Babe'. Only circulates in AUD.

Dark Star

Civic Center

Not unlike how some wines need a good decanting to breathe and bloom, I find this 'Star gets better with each new listen. And, while not always the case, the official release seems to sound best.

Civic Center

Just gave it another listen, focusing largely on Phil and, boy, he even pulls off some Paul Chambers-like hard bop stuff on this one.
