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

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.

The Music Never Stopped
Dec. 27, 1978
Golden Hall, Community Concourse

Spectacular mid section and a decent outro. This one deserves votes. Edit: I've rediscovered this one a couple of months later and I think it belongs somewhere around #5 on the list, give or take a few. It's way better than 4 votes. The linked source is not the best of the three.

I missed the one I wanted by a year.

Awesome playing pre and post rio grandeo. Jerry does sound like a dying frog, but he tries to play his way around the laryngitis.

This is from the heyday of the song and this reading is really strong. But the quality of the SBD makes this version absolutely stand out.The midsection is great: rapid at first and then melodic and kind of cosmic before the segue and the outro is perfectly fine. I would put this one in the top 10.
