An MLB and Mojo jam hybrid. Already submitted as mojo by cgarces. Only 3 minutes, but worth the trip.

Eyes Of The World

MacArthur Court, U of Oregon

This one gets to a crazy place before drums, which, it turns out, is a prankster reunion.

Eyes Of The World
April 8, 1978
Veterans Memorial Coliseum

The Eyes of the 1st S>F>E>E sequence. A lot of piano, some episodes of beauty and, near the end, some rio-grandeo-type quiet to loud modulation.

Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
Sept. 29, 1977
Paramount Theatre

This one is a little off. It's better than dozens above it on the list - it's still a 77 half step - but it really doesn't stack up against almost all of 77 and particularly the fall versions.
The Other One
Oct. 10, 1976
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

A thunderous entrance and then they let it all hang out. Even though this is late 76, this bears little resemblance to the mellow 77s. It may be a bit sloppy at times, but nothing is left on the tee. I’ve been putting this on lately when I want to get fired up.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 22, 1978
Winterland Arena

Chilled out Fire. Very relaxed
Eyes Of The World
Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium

The intro flows and sparkles like the best 77s and the climax of the second solo break is powerful stuff. A highlight of a really consistently good show.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 11, 1977
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

A great Scarlet and a fun transition. The Fire is good, but it doesn't dislodge too many '77s from the perches.
