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.

Could be much higher. This soars. Comments on the linked show discuss different versions out there that might bring down the tinniness of Brent's keys, so I'm looking forward to discovering this show with its brilliant set list.

Right there with you Cucamonga... Couldn't have said it better myself!

Dude 420, you want some weird? Check out the Playin' from Dec. 2nd '73. My weird fave.... Peace, brother.
Dupree's Diamond Blues

Avalon Ballroom

Brilliant raw vocals here, plus a raw, hard-rockin' outro unlike any of the Dupree's I ever got to hear 15 years or so later....

Sounds like half the band didn't make it back from the TIFTOO before this and were left stranded somewhere out past Alpha Centauri.... This is the most scattered Charlie I've ever heard. I kind of love how messed up it is, but it certainly isn't the best one out there.
