Palais Des Sports

Really dark sounding jam dominated by Phil and Jerry. Some unique, jazzy soloing from Jerry too.

Fast, tight and energetic with really inventive Jerry jams in the trasition. One of the best of '73

Philadelphia Civic Center

Wild, hairy, and at times scary Herbie Hancock-esque jazz in this one. One of the all-time best!!!

probably the tightest execution of the "Stronger than Dirt" yet in this early version.

The jam out of Dark Star and into this Eyes is legendary...some of the most beautiful stuff they EVER did! Not to mention Jerry and Keith are playing off each other really great for this only being the 2nd-ever performance.

I prefer the 20th and the 18th for June Eyes, but there was probably never a run better than these. Really unique stuff going on with the funky segue into Big River.
