Grateful Dead - The Other One (Live at Civic Center, San Francisco, CA 12/28/83)

"In the repertoire since 1967 and played consistently until 1995, The Other One was one of the Bob Weir's first lyrics written for the Grateful Dead, and featured a line we all live by to one extent or another: the bus came by and I got on, that's when it all began." - David Lemieux

Saw this live in 1980 in Eugene Oregon. An incredible version. Still have the casette.. August comes to mind...

[@danmedleyprojects6384]

Incredible song 🎵 ♥️

[@dharmaQ3]

Please release some of the live video from 1984 of the Grateful Dead. It's very rare to come across elsewhere on KZbin. More of 1983 would be very appreciated as well.

[@marshallsilva9389]

🥀🌻🐕There was a 'Looks Like Rain' Bobby did that was so impassioned for that day his dog had died. Gave impetus to the line 'felt your side of the bed; covers were still warm where you been layin'... a misty SF rain ☔ was fallin' down when leaving the show.

[@unclerudy9797]

Probably one of the finest renditions of this great compositions was performed in Eugene , Oregon in 1970 I believe... I have the cassette somewhere...

on the other side of things you get all the shows on archive!

[@gregdoyle6367]

I was at this show. First show was Veneta 82. Scored the rail and so much of the show was so new, but damn did they make me stick with it. Saw over 80 shows and after Jerry died, I tried to keep the magic alive by hitting up all the post-Jerry incarnations. But it eventually faded and I found some of that regular joy with other bands. Galactic, Poi Dog, Los Lobos, New Mastersounds, many more. But none hit as deep as the Dead. To this day, can’t listen to D&C, a pale cover version. Without Jerry in the dream, it will never come true is true for me.

[@paulcanis6297]

Not kidding. Veneta 82 was my "official" last show. I was making it known, I'm done. Leaving tour after 4 years, had just turned 19 and had lost count at 250 shows in 1981. Time to move along. Only saw them maybe 5 times afterward. One man gathers lol. That was funky show! Did you wander towards the middle area towards the back? There was a spot where the twirlers had found. The back echo from the hills in the back matched perfectly with the sound off the stage. Not loud but if you were high enough it felt like there were two stages. Damn it was hot that day. I met Bill Graham and Ken Kesey in the soundtent. Just nodded at them and said, I just want to say nice stuff! then immediately left them to their convo. And we got a Dupree's return buddy ;) Veneta was a damn good place to start. Phil was clipping the PA to be an asshole. Old habits of playing tricks used to come out in Oregon. Be well! As the youngsters say, Weir everywhere.

[@numbernine2207]

I feel same. I saw only one post Jerry D&Slow with Warren Haynes & I'm not a fan of other people singing Jerry songs, even Mayer. There's too much real incredible original music out there now. Jazz, Bluegrass,Americana, etc. Gillian Welch, David Rawlings Machine, it's endless. After seeing GD 77 times &.JGB 25 times, everything else is lacking. I did see Bob do an amazing BT Wind at Viejas once but...

[@Twotontessie]

((((1983 was so GOOOOOOD !!!!))))

Totally agree! My hot take is that 1983 was the best year for the Dead and Jerry Band of the entire 1980's. This goes deep

Man, Phil is the only guy on that stage who looks like he isn’t in a state of compromised life force. Dark era for the band.

[@danielmorris3687]

Wasn't this Phil's period of heavy alcohol intake. He says in his autobiography he hit the bottle hard for a few years and got pretty chunky from it. Still sounds grate to me. ✌️🇨🇦

[@Kirreu]

@@danielmorris3687 I believe he was at his worst in the late 70s and according to his book started slowly cleaning up his act in the early 80s. I think he was in the tail end of it at this point.

[@leahi5413]

That is definitely his beer belly phase.

[@matthewkann465]

Bobby looks skeleton-like

[@mwhite6522]

You may be right about that -- I was just a young teen at the time and I saw them live for the first time in spring 1983. Although I was really happy at finally getting to see them, I remember thinking of how low-key Garcia seemed to me, always playing with his head down, standing in the shadows and barely moving. Dare I say he seemed distracted at times. He seemed closed off and inaccessible. Many years later after he passed, I learned Garcia was getting pretty heavy into his Persian addiction at this time, and it was affecting his performances and his morale. I've never seen anyone who seemed so bored at being a rock star. In subsequent shows from both the Dead and Garcia Band I saw over the next 5 years or so, we always went with the hope Garcia would perk up, smile, or show some enjoyment at what he did, and when he did shine through and had his great moments and good nights, the memory of them sustained me for a long time, and for that alone I am thankful for having seen him play live in person. I never saw them again after Brent Mydland died.

[@willhpc4-life249]

GOLD!!

[@albertmiller3082]

The first segment here has Jerry soloing over the basic Other One baseline & it sounds eerily similar to the “Jam Out of Foolish Heart” solo Jerry played years later with Hornsby and Welnick as captured in the So Many Roads boxed set live cut. Interesting! 👌🏼✌️🫶🏻

[@Bluecollar711]

Yes

[@aod7284]

Love this and the bird song from the same show a few weeks ago. Wonder if this'll be the next meetup at the movies? I think in terms of officially released concerts we go from dead ahead (1980) to ticket to new years and VFTV4 (1987) so if the full concert is in the vault it could happen :)

[@CalDiscs]

If this is the next meetup at the movies I'll have to go. I wish I had gone to this years, but this show is my birthday, so I'd HAVE to go

[@729pjp]

Jerry was a in a free fall but I always felt his guitar playing in 82-83 was well above board.

[@sunnysideamps]

Yes, he looks terrible. It makes me feel sad because I used to see them way before he worked himself into this state. That being said, he somehow could still play decently. RIP Jerry and thanks for so much!

I never apricated Bobby because Dan mixed him out and I couldn't hear his awesome rhythm fill. What was the big deal with Dan hating Bobby? It wasn't till long past when it was it was over when I grew to "hear" Bob. There was of course,that whole east coast Bobby love thing and I was a west coaster.
