Exactly what I look for in an Eyes. As good as they come.

Ecstatic, exhuberent, exciting. Great end to a great set.

Starts like a rocket, lands on Mars bigtime, then light-speed re-entry to a killer Eyes in under 10 minutes after a balls-out Truckin. Great set.

Massive Phil and Jerry co-soloing in a supersonic mindmeld for 19 minutes. Very special with a raw, almost brutish energy.

Turn On Your Love Light
Jan. 2, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

Jack-a-Straw is right: this deserves much more recognition. That they had enough energy after the monumental DS>SS>11 to even attempt a Love Light is of course staggering. That they were able to blast through the firmament with a Love Light of this intensity is immortal. Give her a listen and vote her up, boys.
Dark Star

No doubt about it, 1970 kicks off with a massive massive heady Star, folks. This, as mentioned above, is well under-rated. It's got deep creepy far out lose-yer-mind predatory space craters followed by back-to-your body feather-light elegant whispers, and then there's that brilliant Tighten Up jam. Could go much higher on the list.

Everything you look for in an early UJB, right here.

Something succinct about these comments, demonstrating just what a high standard they were playing at this pivotal new year's juncture. In short: this one rocks hard. Great transition from the Cryptical reprise into a sweet Cosmic Charlie too.
