The Other One
May 7, 1989
Frost Ampitheater

Lead in jam is like a train whistle in the distance...then before you know it, it blows past you. High intensity, effects...great choice for a shorter style Other One. (And stay tuned right on through Black Peter.)
Shakedown Street
Jan. 15, 1979
Springfield Civic Center

To me, this was the night the band realized what they had created...I think they blew their own minds when they dropped into it like that. For an extra special treat, listen to the Jerry/Keith interplay leaving the interverse solo.
