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

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

The Other One

U.C.

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.

Playin' In The Band

U.C.

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

Rockin' Pneumonia
Sept. 3, 1972
Folsom Field, University of Colorado

A boogie-woogie unrehearsed mess of a rarity, and I love it.
Jack Straw
Sept. 3, 1972
Folsom Field, University of Colorado

A damn fine Jack Straw in an excellent show from a peak era. What more could y'all be looking for?
The Other One
May 29, 1969
Robertson Gym, U.C.S.B.

No joking matter: This is Danger Dead. Bad PA or not, when you want a punch in the brain, here's your monster.
Cold Rain and Snow
Sept. 3, 1972
Folsom Field, University of Colorado

Between the August Berkeley run, Veneta and this knock-out, I'd say this was a peak run for Cold Rains.
The Other One
Sept. 3, 1972
Folsom Field, University of Colorado

From its silky smooth flow out of He's Gone with its steam-whistle feedback on arrival, this one seeps down from on high, then runs through your bloodstream like a good strong double dose of The Strange. It's long and weird, even though the meltdown sections never go completely bonkers. The re-entry is a musical wonder considering just how far out they were in the moment, and it must have left more than a few jaws dropped to the floor.
