Doesnt the Other One go back into Cryptical before the Stella Blue?

I honestly cant remember, but I used to LOVE that Shakedown. Unbelievable Boob Weir on that one!

By the way Jon, email me at home (darkstarotherone@rogers.com) so I can remember to look for that 81 show for you.

I keep forgetting..............

Maybe we should do a pick of the week, or we will have this fun game done in a couple of years, perhaps a little longer [Wink]

COMMENTS FROM DEADLISTS

The sound setup at this show was the first version of the

Wall of Sound. Sound mixing problems at the board during Promised

Land. According to reports from an eyewitness, this was the result of

half the speakers frying. Very brief splice during Looks Like Rain.

Complete Loose Lucy timing supercedes previous listing showing it cut

at 4:59. Splice in Playing In The Band at 8:38. Hard to tell how much

is missing although it can't be more than a few minutes and could be

only a few seconds. Splice in Truckin' at 6:23 (~6:20 on this source).

Could be a minute or two missing here.

The first Eyes has quite a bit of exploratory jamming without dropping

to that Dm riff (or whatever you want to call it), which is present to

some degree in all other known '73 versions of the song. Jerry plays

the chord on the final notes of the song before changing to China Doll.

By February 15, the change had been worked out.

The cut in Wave That Flag at 1:25 is missing a full chorus a after the

second verse. Before Sugar Magnolia, Bob says, " This one's our new

single, broke big as hell in Pittsburgh...that's the truth, too."

During Casey Jones, a blown amplifier is audible in the mix.

{Playing In The Band [3:05] > Jam [13:#29] > Playing In The Band

[2:25]}

The show has the first performances of Loose Lucy, Here Comes Sunshine,

They Love Each Other, Eyes Of The World, China Doll and Wave That Flag.

Tape flips following Looks Like Rain, Here Comes Sunshine, They Love

Each Other, and Ramble On Rose. The following song begins, cuts and is

restarted on the next side.

This is a solid and energetic show, with each song getting as full a

performance as possible. A slew of new songs performed as though they

had been performed for years, particularly songs that would grow into

staples of sets.
