Freedom Hall

A kaleidoscopic Other One is the apex of a very well-played second set.

Emphatic, even ferocious. Check it out.

Winterland Arena

Thunderous energy to complement the rest of this hard-rocking Winterland run.

Capitol Theater

Not just a straightforward rocker. Keith adds an icy contrast to Jerry’s fire while the drummers up the tension.

Sparkling version. Worth your attention as you savor the perfect Oade AUD.

Brown Eyed Women

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

It’s not an exaggeration to say that this was one of the best songs in their repertoire around the time of this version.

Sept. 16, 1972
Boston Music Hall

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Wow, where did that come from? A unique jam makes for one of the coolest NFAs of the decade.
Franklin's Tower

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Jerry switches to slide after several verses, followed shortly by a smoooth segue to Walkin’ Blues. Cool and different.
