Freedom Hall

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

Winterland Arena

Emphatic, even ferocious. Check it out.

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.

The Other One
May 10, 1978
Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

Phil seems to hint at the E-A-C jam from Music Never Stopped. Cool version.
Cumberland Blues
Oct. 21, 1973
Omaha Civic Auditorium

“Precise” is right. Not a note out of place.
Turn On Your Love Light
Feb. 20, 1971
Capitol Theater

Well, this is just nuts.

Cincinnati Gardens

Yeah, Phil is all over this version. I wouldn’t say Jerry’s vocal delivery is lacking, though. He fumbles a lyric at the end, but the dynamics and feeling are all there. Great version, though. Casts a spell.
Bird Song
July 21, 1972
Paramount Northwest Theater

Ah, the Download Series Vol. 10 version is actually filler from 7/22. Great in any case!
