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.

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

Madison Square Garden

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.

He's Gone
Sept. 14, 1991
Madison Square Garden

This is my favorite version of "He's Gone." There's just something so haunting about it. A year after he passed, this is the one where I feel Brent's spectre lurking the most. It has a real heaviness to it. Great singing from Jerry, great solo as well, and Bruce adds his touch as well.
Stella Blue
May 26, 1995
Memorial Stadium

Every 1994-95 "Stella" has an incredible emotional weight to it.
Dire Wolf

Boston Garden

Great late day version. Very spry.
All Along the Watchtower
March 27, 1993
Knickerbocker Arena

Amazing version. Great show.
Wharf Rat

Greek Theater

(cont'd) His harmonies are gorgeous, and his organ work really adds an additional foreboding atmosphere to an already dark song.
