Yeah, Sugar Mag okay... but the Sunshine Daydream is tops. Just kills me each time I hear it.

Top form from a great 2nd set then into a ballsy TOO jam (no lyrics) and then one of the best Eyes of all time.

Let It Grow

Nassau Coliseum

First-ever performance. Mid-way they let it grow into experimental bliss. A must-have for LIG fans.

Intense jaming and crystal clear guitar work, plus Billy's hard driving makes it a barn-burner. Gets better each listen.

Really smooth and mellow groove 2nd set opener from a solid show after a month in the studio. Hard to see why not here yet.

Beautiful transition out of an epic Eyes, keeping up the mellow vibe of the whole show: Take-yer-time, we'll get there...

This whole show has a nice take-our-time vibe. They build up slow and steady, but get there in the end, making this another top-shelf '73 Eyes.

Zen-like spacious "hot mellow" like the best of '73. Opening the show like this must have told the heads in attendance, "Gear up boys and girls, we're on tonight...."

Truly one of the most amazing examples of the GD's brilliance ever. I love this version. No secret that '73 Eyes are soaring glories (wings a mile long...) but this one stands out for its crisp precision and the absolutely freakingly shredding jam after the interlude leading straight into China Doll. Leaves me breathless.

Beautiful spaced out jazz. Sounds for a second like Jer wanted to go into Stella right before Drums.
