Eyes Of The World
This is an amazing piece...it is art. I preferred the 1974 versions until I heard this one. Amazing, thoughtful, articulate.

Althea
Long, patient, mellow version.
10
The Music Never Stopped
Long, long closing jam, major Phil bombs and fiery strumming by both Weir and Garcia, give it a listen. Road Trips No.1 Vol 1 Full Show.

Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
Out of Space very cool intro..lots of energy then they blow into SugarMag.
4
Passenger
Locked in the pocket Jer decides to murder this one. Sheesh.
5
Pretty Peggy O
Tempo is perfect for Jer's deft touch - close to perfect with everyone contributing thoughtfully. Jer's voice is breaking by the end.
3
Friend of the Devil
Beautiful version that soars in some parts.
4
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Groovy opening to a great show
2
Cassidy
I've waded through a lot of Cassidys that weren't nearly as good. This one deserves to be on the list. Listen and vote it up the line if you agree!
