Comments:

A wonderful Pigpen 1st set with his voice in very good shape. A good marathon Playin' before heading into a jam based 2nd set. El Paso provided a good breather between a cosmic TO1>Wharf Rat. Unfortunately, the Sugar Magnolia, NFA>GDTRFB>NFA didn't make the tape but SATURDAY NIGHT did, along with Bobby's vocal chord bending screaming.
Hope to hear that last piece some other time.

How do you have a good copy of this show? The only two on archive.org are absolutely horrible AUD's, they are the worst ever recorded. So if you have a good copy, could you be so kind as to give a seed to Charlie Miller at archive.org so he can upload it and we can all listen to it?

Thank you!

My first show. Monumental Other One. Monumental show. 3rd row, centre stage. Queued all night outside in February to get the tickets. Worth every shiver.

One of the auds you speak of was done by a friend of mine, on one of those crappy cassette decks from that time. I do believe there is a 16 track of this in the vaults, and indeed, that there are for all of Europe '72 (this passed to me by Mike Getz of the Taper's Compendium, who blagged a visit to the vault).

So for the mo' what there is on Steppin' Out is all we have. So it was nigh on 30 years before I heard the Other One in any quality at all.

Worth the wait

Kinda fitting they started this tour off with "Greatest Story Ever Told" don't ya think?
-Anonymous (01/08/2014)


^This. From those opening chords of GSET they really do set the stage for the Europe tour. This one Phil kind of dismissed in his book as being a warm-up (literally - apparently it cold as a mofo at that stadium), and the real goods were the next night. But I dunno, Phil, there's some spectacular music throughout this one:
*super-groovy slowed-down China Cat > Rider
*Playin's 10-minute pocket fireworks.
*The Other One. ::::::::::WOW::::::::::: For the rest of my life I'll never get tired of listening to this.

My first show -- still think the GSET is one of the best ever. In fact I really rate this show. I was disappointed not to get a dark star though!

Happy 50th birthday to this show! Love the Truckin' > Other One > El Paso > Other One > Wharf Rat!
-Amy Ryan (04/07/2022)


This version of Caution encapsulates the Dead sounds across their nearly eight years at that point. Some beautiful moments before Phil’s signature rave up— a la ‘69 versions!
Cumberland from the next night has shades of Viola Lee all throughout tiny ears! Such a strong start to Europe ‘72! Happy 50th.
