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 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.

The archive link is for an AUD but there is a nice, crisp Miller-worked SBD available, too.

Listening to this leaves me scratching my head why the Dead only played this once. I tend to think that Jerry must have chosen it as he would go on to play it later outside of the Dead, but why it was dropped I don't know. It's really easy to imagine any vintage of the band doing great stuff with this tune.

Nice one, for sure. This one somehow slipped through the cracks.

'TJ' is a great tune that I generally skip over; however, I regard this version as one of the highlights of this legendary show. This one seems a little low on the list.
