Eyes Of The World
June 18, 1974
Freedom Hall

This show and the shows before and after are amazing possibly the three best eyes ever and they are all in a row.
Hey Pocky Way
March 28, 1990
Nassau Coliseum

Definetly a hot version, this show seems like a giant party should have been mardi gras or chinese new years.
The Weight
March 28, 1990
Nassau Coliseum

Sweet version, caught the crowd by sheer surprise, Garcia has a beautiful tone on his guitar throughout the whole song. Version from the 1970's NOT the Grateful dead, just contained some members. it was a NRPS set with some dead members sitting in. Not a grateful dead performance. So to me it was the breakout.
Foolish Heart
March 28, 1990
Nassau Coliseum

Minor vocal hiccups but hot jamming, seems to be the mo of this whole show.
Cumberland Blues
March 28, 1990
Nassau Coliseum

This one definitely smokes, this show as a whole like this song has a few minor vocal miscues but the playing is hot throughout.
