Jerry's solo to close this one out is hard-driving and aggressive.

This particular version of this particular universe doesn't have a better one than this.

Ramble On Rose

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

From a show that needs no introduction, this is one of the few versions of this song that I would be glad to listen to again.
Black Peter

Fillmore East

Maybe the best thing off of that album.
You Ain't Woman Enough To Take My Man

Donna delivers.

Yeah, Jerry kept evolving. I have read somewhere (I'll try to source it) that this acoustic sound is something that Jerry had been striving to attain. If you like this sound, check out some of the China>Riders from this time.
The Other One

Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

Well, if we're calling that Feedback/HyperSpace part of 'The Other One', I agree--great stuff! It certainly impressed me more than anything else on DP 1 after my first listen.
