I am always on the search for top notch Cassidys' and this one really checks all the right boxes. The mid song jam is en fuego

Tight and focused, only 8 minutes but for 8 minutes it covers a lot of ground.

Tender and sorrowful. Jerry hits all the right notes.

This one really shines on the seamons matrix. A really solid version that needs to be heard by all. Should be ranked much much higher.

Nice extended late era version of Eyes. Love the acoustic jamming in this one.

Cool drum intro with some nice improv at the end. Gets real psychedelic and intense with an ok segue into Eyes.

The beginning is rough as the band seems to forget how to play it. Jerry stumbles through the lyrics as well but he does find his way through some decent solos. It finishes some what strong but there are better versions to seek out then this one.

This needs more love. Outstanding version! Brent adds some really cool effects. The hunter matrix sounds really good.
