1970 was a great year for NFA and this version smokes.

This song expresses something deep about the band, and this is a great version.

I usually don't go for the slower ones, but the band is on fire and Garcia's got a bone in his teeth.

This is really one beautiful piece of a diadem sequence. Best appreciated in context.
Eyes Of The World

Nassau Coliseum

I second the above completely. Make sure to check out some of the other awesome versions so this doesn't become a runaway freight train of up votes (looking at you, 05-08 S > F).

Worth a bump. This gets pretty far out there, and there's a lot of great interplay. Better than the other, more famous Branford show that's been re-released lately?

Public Hall

This is the most organic sounding Dark Star. It grows out of tuning into a jam into space into the verse and feedback and subsequent jams without hesitation.
