Capitol Center

A bit overlooked for summer '74, this version is one of the very best. Jerry's cool tone has a lot of bite!

Classic SJ out of a great wandering Dark Star...Jerry and Phil dueling it out hard!

First ever SJ, and possibly my new favorite! This incredible jam just keeps building and does not let up once for the entire 16 minutes!

The Omni

Wonderful version, the best June '74 Eyes IMO. The proto-Slipknot that develops out of the post song jam is especially wicked, but the entire performance of the song is truly special in every way.

One of Phil's finest moments, he just won't quit soloing. You can tell Jerry is trying to come in with the minor jam and Phil just shuts him down!
