Man does this version have a good bounce to it. I would put this version up against any version from the 80's.

This version doesn't quit. Jerry's solo is relentless

Check out the really groovy pre-drums jam that comes out of this UJB.

Great swing to this version. Excellent Brent and Jerry solos. A gem of a show from an odd tour.

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.
