The Other One

Winterland Arena

If Picasso's 'Guernica' had a small cut in it it would still be a masterpiece. This TOO has a bad cut in the recording but is still a masterpiece. A+

This is heady but it's now believed to have occurred on 5-11-69 in San Diego.

A highly edited but well-worth-your-time video of this kickass performance is now up on youtube.

Jerry's singing and electrified Keith make this one heady.

Plenty happening on this one to warrant a listen. Nice segue into 'Drums'.

Wharf Rat
Nov. 21, 1973
Denver Coliseum

The ‘El Paso’ is the mayo and this ‘Rat’ is the meat of this great PITB sandwich. Very well executed, with a cool outro. Incidentally, when did Donna first help out with vocals on the ‘I’ll get up and fly away’ portion?

A very nice sandwich. The PITB segments are all very good and full of interest. The ‘El Paso’ and ‘Wharf Rat’ contained herein are each good ones, particularly the ‘Wharf Rat’. The final ‘Playin’’ segment has a ‘Tiger Jam’ just before the reprise.

Phil and Bill lock in early and set this one up nicely. Is it a mellow intensity or an intense mellowness that pervades this one? Anyway, who cares? its good.

Limber and loose-limbed, this one is. May be the hottest from Fall '73.
