Eyes Of The World
April 7, 1994
Miami Arena
I have returned a couple times to the 10/17 version as well as the 3/31/91 and i need more monster 20+ minute 90's eyesies. i just need it. something happens when you go that long... there's a reason there are many 20 minuters from the inaugural year of 1973, even though i guess those had the outro material added. Back to this one-- wow. Languid, luxuriant, palatial pace, you can practically feel the sea breeze on this... by far the slowest one i've heard post 70's, and maybe ever. thrillingly unique and very well-oiled to boot, they are playing beautifully and sensitively. I mean wow this thing is fucking slow. feels like good karma.. vibe scientists. Definitely worth the listen, i'd give this version an 8 or 9. Better ones exist technically but it's awesome experimentation, gliding worry free freakshow ambient and it's a world unto itself, you can completely melt into it. Builds to a satisfying soaring peak if you are willing to take the ride. That 10/17/94 version though, like the scarlet fire from that run, i swear those might be the best versions of those songs ever done. Crazy thing about this one is you feel like it could go for even longer, the texture changes completely in the last two minutes
