Great for Toddler-Heads at under 5 minutes, with quirky urgency, one of the shortest ever…

Blue Dead or Grateful Blues… either way, Jerry and Pigpen were master blues men.

The Other One

Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Wicked jams crash into wicked jams with an Uncle John’s jam tumbling ridiculously in and out of Me and My Uncle…. Amazing show!
Eyes Of The World
June 9, 1976
Boston Music Hall

Superb EYES!! There are moments where you almost forget what song it is… which is rare for EYES! Classic jamming! 1976 is one of my favorite years for this reason, despite being only half a year. One of their jazziest and jammiest stretches, a true bridge between 74 and 77, both very different eras! This show is a great example of how they were so willing to move songs around and try new ideas, inventing the jam band genre …. Entire show is spectacular!

Scorcher!!! This show is so powerful! It not only features the one of my favorite EYES OF THE WORLD ever (which really should be ranked so much higher!) .... But this Other One just soars.... short, yes....but fantastic!

The MLB definitely adds to a downright melodic MNS! Worth a vote!

Jerry’s sense of urgency is palpable!
