The Other One

Giants Stadium

Everyone goes on about the (awesome) "Dark Star" jam out of UJB but there's definitely a healthy dose of "The Other One" in there as well.

Last Godcheauxs version. Donna has a good time.

From the HBO broadcast. Surprised it's not here. This is hot, especially on Brent's end.

How? How is this not here? Dick's Picks 9. Out of a freakish post-SOTM jam. Bobby roars. Phil rolls thunder. Jerry is on fire.

Beautiful version with Jerry in his ragged latter day glory.

Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Bit weird that this was the only song they repeated during this stand.
Dark Star
April 1, 1991
Greensboro Coliseum

This version should be waaaaaay higher. The band is locked in, and it goes through just about every mood and color you'd expect out of "Dark Star" jams. Such a complete version. Can hang with 1968-74.

Best version I've heard. Listening now as work quiets down.
Drums -> Space

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Mickey attacks the beam during this sequence, exceptionally violent stuff. One of the most memorable performances of this combo.
Dark Star

Copps Coliseum

The last great one indeed. This whole show is excellent. I really like how Bruce carried the 1991-92 "Dark Star"'s. 1991/09/26 is another great one where he steals the show.
