Eyes Of The World
Jan. 17, 1979
New Haven Coliseum

Several relentless guitar passages throughout.

Nassau Coliseum

Hard to believe this is an AUD. 8:00-8:40 is a good example - crystal clear and tight.

Nassau Coliseum

Not too fast and not too slow with some nice double time at the end.

Playin' In The Band
Jan. 6, 1978
Swing Auditorium

Jerry has laryngitis, so only Bobby tunes set 2 this day, and Keith Godchaux takes over the 2nd half of this PITB, especially the last 5 minutes.

Deal
June 22, 1983
City Island

This is an eleven minute Deal with a bunch of ebbs, flows and peaks.

Springfield Civic Center

The second and third solos are off the hook. If you can handle some '85 roughness, this one brings heat.
Comes A Time
July 17, 1976
Orpheum Theatre

I just got this in the mail and this was the first thing I cued up. I wholeheartedly endorse the thoughts of the other commenters. Listen quickly.
Wharf Rat
July 8, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

I first heard this in 1999 and it's been my favorite since then. It's all about Jerry in the pearly's been true section. I bet this one will get a bump from the July 78 box.
Terrapin Station
April 22, 1977
The Spectrum

If you like this song, you should hear this one, if only for the fact that this is number 6. The aesthetic is sweet, but this is not the best one ever.
The Wheel
April 22, 1977
The Spectrum

Yes, it's short - I cannot lie. It's also perfect in a number of respects and you'd better hope you get some gapless playback as it goes into the sixth terrapin ever - because that 20 seconds or so are some awesome (quiet) stuff.
