Joyous and radiant. This song just brings on the love. High energy pulse throughout.

Jer sings harmony in parts while whipping out precise 16th-note passages at warp speed. Awesome.

Spring '73 is the fountain of youth for Eyes fans. This brilliant version has the first (?) Slipknot tease around 11:00. Great show all around.

45 years ago today... just noticed that. Loooove the archive/time machine. Peace, friends, and give a thought to our veteran brothers and sisters out there today.

If you like this, then check out 09 November 1970. In spite of being a very rough AUD, it does show off the electric funky Elem.

C- AUD quality for completists only.

Mountain Jam "discussed" between 06:40 and approx 07:30. Right there on the surface, just blistering to come out in the open. This is a perfect show all around.

Everything said supra: pre-verse is possibly the prettiest Dark Star out there. The verse sung beautifully. The crowd is keyed in - listen to the whole run and this show to know just how rowdy and aggressive they were - and coalesces around the hyperspace jump into the post-verse exploration by hushing the lone doubter. What comes next is mind-ripping and hard; don't use this to convince your dead-doubting partner to get on the bus. But then light. The darkness clears and we're home free... A Main Ten brings order back to the spacial consciousness. All this in 16 minutes of music.
