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!

Huntington Civic Center

The guitar solo, man!

Mystery Train

Capitol Theater

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.

Weather Report Suite
March 28, 1973
Civic Center

Ain't no suite, but sure as hell the maiden voyage of the signifier of what many must connote with it. Stands as the 'Prelude' to a DS that I've learned to love in a sequence that's as unique as they come, really.
Truckin'
June 26, 1974
Providence Civic Center

Dick didn't pick his 'Truckin''s lightly. This and that from his Vol. 7 are both way better than the current votes show.
The Other One
June 26, 1974
Providence Civic Center

(Several posts of this needed to get to properly edited descriptor. iPad's fault, let's say.) This little version was listened to numerous times over the course of my still-ongoing little thing where I listen to only purchased Dead, trying to go in deep on some revisits.
Playin' In The Band
July 16, 1976
Orpheum Theatre

Keeps getting better with each listen.
The Wheel
July 16, 1976
Orpheum Theatre

'The Wheel' is an oddly little elusive tune, but I've caught some nice glimpses of this one. Much of this show seems to nicely ripen with repeated listens.
