Very strong version with lots of slinky Jerry guitar. Ending builds up nicely.

Absolutely hypnotic jam out of Estimated, Jerry is insane. Too bad this is no longer on the Archive.

Haha, my last comment was intended for 2/24/73. This is, however, a really awesome PITB, with some stupendously creative jazz jams from Jerry...very unique stuff here!

Pauley Pavilion - University of California

This maybe the best, smoothest version of the whole "sandwich", but 3/23/74 definitely has a hotter Playin'.

Just have to add that of the 3 times they did this sandwich, I think this is my favorite. Such a probing, intense Playin', and the transition from UJB back to Playin' reprise is just magical. A-Mazing stuff!!!
Eyes Of The World

Community War Memorial Auditorium

Top shelf stuff. My favorite Eyes of '77 for sure.

Love this version!!!! Maybe not as epic as 11/6/77, but rip-roaring energy to spare!! One of my favorites ever.
