Eyes Of The World
Aug. 6, 1974
Roosevelt Stadium

This one cooks. Put your steaks on the barbecue, forget the charcoal, lighter fluid and the match. This version is so hot, it's all you need.
Johnny B. Goode

Alpine Valley Music Theatre

How in the world can this version be ranked so low? It totally rocks and kicks butt. If you've ever heard someone say "The band was tight." and you didn't know what they meant, just listen to this. Tight as tight can be.

Jerry's intensity, energy and focus are off the charts. Quadruple fanning early on. Oh yeah - quadruple fanning again mid jam. He wails and shreds. The Fat Man still rocks!!!!
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Alpine Valley Music Theatre

This version really cooks. Usually it's all about the transitional jam, but with this version, Jerry is doing his best guitar work during Rider, totally shredding it.
