Jerry and Bob are both really good on this one. Phil and Bill drive it forward nicely as well -- doesn't drag at all like some do.

Eyes Of The World
Sept. 7, 1973
Nassau Coliseum

Just hearing this for the first time -- WOW! Fast and energetic, sure, but it's also heavier than most Eyes...this one has some bite!
Scarlet Begonias

Portland Memorial Coliseum

Was listening to this show in the backyard yesterday for the anniversary...when Donna let out that scream on the outro, my dog jolted out of her sleep and looked at me like "WTF?!"
Uncle John's Band
May 11, 1972
Rotterdam Civic Hall

Such a soothing (pre-OMSN) finish to this epic, Top 5 show of all time. Jerry does some really cool stuff during the 7/4 section.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

This version of this oft-played sandwich is better than most, that's for sure. Bubbling over with euphoric energy, driving home one of the best shows ever in style.
Sugar Magnolia
April 29, 1972
Musikhalle

Faster than most! Some great tambourine work during the solo as well...
