I went to vote for this one, as it's my all-time favorite, and couldn't believe that it over't there.

Eyes Of The World

Boston Garden

Hadn't listened to this in quite a while. Not just a fantastic EYES but a great show!

Very nice version, but not even a top 5 imho. There are at least 5 from 73-74 that are better. I'm surprised this is so high, but then again all Dead is great Dead.

Boston Garden

This should be top 3. No doubt about it. Great choice.

This was my last dead show. Had never listened to it on the archives. Took me on a trip (no pun intended) down memory lane. Very cool. Better than I remembered!

I have to agree with Grendel. This is way over rated. I'm not saying it is not top 10 or even top5, and it is incredible that this was the first time they ever played it, but there are better imho.
