Perhaps its uniqueness prevents it from EPIC status but listen to how obtuse this thing is.

Something for everyone here: lush aural quiltwork, bass solo, and a 'Feelin' Groovy' segment which is followed by tight abstractions

Laid-back yet rich and full. Well worth a listen!!!

Both more nuanced and multi-textured than your typical PITB jam. Great stuff!!!

Listen to the crowd go wild on the SBD after Jerry's solo.

Thanks to nickj from http://transitiveaxis.forumup.us/forum-14-transitiveaxis.html for inspiring me to go back to this show and give this TLEO a listen.

Indeed, lots of 'The Other One' teases/hints but it was not to be, as they go into 'GDTRFB', instead. Phil goes nuts towards the end of this one.

Jerry's first lead is fluid and satisfying. After the second verse check out how Phil falls in, like big, shiny bubbles in water. And Phil solos right alongside Jerry here, as well. The outro material is well-played.
