Oh man, Jerry is all over this version. Playing with fire in the belly

Playin' In The Band

Wow, seemingly a very overlooked gem. Tension and release, weaving effortlessly from mellow jam segments to soaring peaks, without screechy breakdown

Eyes Of The World
July 19, 1974
Selland Arena

If it ever feels like nothing is going right in the world, this version is a beacon of light to the contrary. Full band participation, but Phil, Billy, and Keith really holds this one down and bring it to the next echelon. Lovely and have respun several times this week alone
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication

St. Louis Arena

Not usually my track, but this one flows beautifully and the rhythm devils are pushing this one alone. Heady and worth a spin

Hornsby on accordion makes this sound like it could be echoing out of a pub somewhere in Ireland. Jerry's solo is stunning. In some instances, like this, the accordion works. In others, like the subsequent Mexicali Blues, it is painful to endure. This one is lovely.
