Jerry and Pigpen sing together in this one, and they brought the passion!

High intensity, coming in hot after a hot Caboose jam.

Powerful version. The vocal entrance at the end brings the house down, you can tell they're having fun; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gjjkcVIoys

Bob goes for it in the rap and Garcia smiles a bit. A fun latter day version, though it never jams out like mad. Video of it here! https://www.youtube

The Other One
April 21, 1972
Beat Club

This was my first The Other One, and by god it changed me. Having just heard Live/Dead, then stumbling onto this i had my face ripped off brutally, and had it smacked back on, insane. Magical and atmospheric, this takes you all the way out there and back again, changed for good. Amazing version that really needs more votes.
Turn On Your Love Light
Nov. 15, 1969
Lanai Theater

Pig and Bob conversing a little far out into the jam, this is really what the Lovelight was supposed to be. With some banter and Pig going at it with the harmonica (insanely groovy by the way, in a GMLSG way.) Delightful.

You when something is so good you just sit there laughing? The Cryptical > Clementine here induces that feeling. Have a great day all of you!

darkstar67, the Schoolgirl mad me face-melted. Jerrys tone during the Feburary shows were madness-inducing, i'm speechless
