Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Great eleven-esque stuff that DJ crossfades into this marvelous Eyesie. Skimpy yes, think of the blazing short 78 TO1, and groove on this greek upper

euphoric, first-rate, gorgeous and thick. Resumes the tidal magnificently opulent warmth of PITB with the grace of liszt or bach.

He's Gone
Oct. 28, 1977
Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial Hall

great call, this seems like a major version- 77 is of course the heyday of slow he's gone and this one passes with honors. Betty board is translucent honey. This version is a fearful beggar experiencing disregulation of identity- devils find the spot in the downbeat completely free of anticipation, Phil 'n' Bob jigsaws aligning. Great coda and sprawling dark jam to follow.
Eyes Of The World
March 31, 1991
Greensboro Coliseum

absolute face melter of a version, cauldron stirring
Stella Blue
Jan. 30, 1978
Uptown Theater

fantastic Stella>Franklins. Jerry's not ready to quit and the boys get the hint.
Cold Rain and Snow
April 27, 1985
Frost Amphitheatre

firey versh. Devils really locking in this first set, Phil is out of control per the norm for 84/85, goes into a nice music never stopped.
