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.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 3, 1982
The Scope

This one is great for this time of year. The Seaweed soundboard makes the whole version sound great but the transition is really where this version shines. It's one idea after another and in that respect it is like a sonic springtime bursting forth

That’s fantastic
Attics of My Life
May 28, 1976
Orpheum Theatre

I wish there were more of this song from this era, but this is it. Others may have strong feelings about this, but for me the song never sounds better than it does during this ‘76 rehearsal, even the album.

Aladdin Theater

My favorite Deals come from 1981.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

The Spectrum

I hadn’t listened in years and I just listened on a run this morning. Pre and post are brilliant but differently. And in spite of the flubs this one has a lot in common with versions of this era that are among the best overall. I’ll have to listen to that Other One to hear the echoes of that famous show. But compare the ethereal beginning of post rio grandeo on this one to other post sections for the year which often start off with a bang instead. This one is pretty cool
