Eyes Of The World
Feb. 19, 1973
International Amphitheatre

A few vocal flubs but this one is spectacular. Absolutely tremendous Eyes in a stellar second set. Love these early versions, so fresh and uniquely and wonderfully played.

Boston Music Hall

Incredible solo by Jerry in this one. Suuuuuuper underrated on this site. Coming on the June '76 box set. Also Donna is outstanding here.

Jerry's voice on these '70 Black Peters is sublime.
