A big version. Listen as the baton gets passed without missing a beat.

Madison Square Garden

An A1 performance that just improves with repeated listenings.

They Love Each Other
April 13, 1983
Patrick Gymnasium, U of Vermont

A bull's ass in fly season and the boys on this one are both TIGHT!!! (Although tight might not be the correct word for an awesome TLEO.)

Brokedown Palace
Sept. 28, 1972
Stanley Theatre

While not without imperfection, this version gets at that misty quality central to the ethos of the tune.

A small order of nice fried clams shared between two.

Well rendered
New Minglewood Blues

Some nice facets to the swank
Good Lovin'
April 25, 1971
Fillmore East

Not sure if Harpur gets as high, peakwise, as this one.
The Other One
June 26, 1974
Providence Civic Center

Should of said somewhere that this one has no singing and is just enough of a jam on the main theme that it's called an Other One Jam>Spanish Jam on disc one of DP12. But after listening some more, it seems like it really might be a TOO>Spanish Jam>TOO sandwich. If some great Dark Stars (Miami '74, Dec. '71 Felt Forum, etc.) can go without singing, then so can this TOO. How many TOOs went without singing?
