Easy To Love You

Capital Centre

Awesome Brent song. Really nice stuff here, brilliant chords and melody.
Aiko Aiko
Aug. 10, 1982
Iowa Fieldhouse - University of Iowa

Whoa. yummy, gorgeously filling version of Iko Iko, everyone is really feeling the slower groove and the results are kind of explosive. This show is one for the books
Eyes Of The World
Aug. 10, 1982
Iowa Fieldhouse - University of Iowa

Wow, meaty sandwich gift of a speedy, multi-armed beast of an 82 Eyesie.
Morning Dew
Oct. 12, 1984
Augusta Civic Center

Stuff of legend, the guys galvanized by Jerry's hair-raising sermonic power started to arise to the nethers. You find that morning dew is more or less the Dead's "curtain call" song when they want to really drive the set into an ecstatic fever pitch. Jerry's "flutterbird" tremolo distortion tone approaches or approximates the circumference of the sun and neighboring intellectual planets. this is a perfect show
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
Aug. 10, 1982
Iowa Fieldhouse - University of Iowa

John Perry Barlow was a character, and boyhowdy he could take you into a vortex of whatever humanistic subject he chose, crafting epic rat's mazes of things. This is a great nautical and religious voyage, punctuated by the strongest fusion influence yet on Weir's chords, signs of Mccoy Tyner and Bill Evans.
