The Other One
Oct. 24, 1972
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!

The guitar solo, man!

Capitol Theater

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.

Cold Rain and Snow

Fox Theatre

Just like a big B-52 chugging upward, '69/'70 Dead could sure soar in its own heavy way.
Not Fade Away
Dec. 29, 1977
Winterland Arena

Devoid of downtime.
Loser
Dec. 29, 1977
Winterland Arena

1970s guitar god-type shit. Always the first of the big 'Loser's that comes to mind, although I'm one of those that thinks 'Loser' could be hot in any vintage.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Aug. 7, 1982
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

I can't seem to recall a so-called 'Feelin' Groovy' jam/theme/motif in a CCS>IKYR that better serves its purpose than the one here.
The Other One
March 1, 1969
Fillmore West

This or Harpur? Might have to go with this for versions with that '69/'70 sound. Then again, might have to take a closer listen.
