Hurts Me Too

Legion Stadium

Pig's vox never sounded better. Pure, fine Blue Ron soul and a rippin' set of solos, but sadly cuts out.

All about the jam. One of the mello raps of the era, and they go off in that way that says "let's do this forever". Why not here?

Sweetness in form and execution. Even the feedback from the monitors harmonises nicely. A gentle, delicate version.

Deep blues, two brilliant harp solos, great Jerry work (duh), and a Charlie Miller cleanup. Listen up!

Deep Elem Blues

Starts a little funny, but has that rare electric funk quality. On the recent C. Miller cleanup, so thank you sir.

Weather Report Suite

Beautiful transition out of an epic Eyes, keeping up the mellow vibe of the whole show: Take-yer-time, we'll get there...
Eyes Of The World

Kiel Auditorium

This whole show has a nice take-our-time vibe. They build up slow and steady, but get there in the end, making this another top-shelf '73 Eyes.
Here Comes Sunshine

Zen-like spacious "hot mellow" like the best of '73. Opening the show like this must have told the heads in attendance, "Gear up boys and girls, we're on tonight...."
Eyes Of The World

Kiel Auditorium

Truly one of the most amazing examples of the GD's brilliance ever. I love this version. No secret that '73 Eyes are soaring glories (wings a mile long...) but this one stands out for its crisp precision and the absolutely freakingly shredding jam after the interlude leading straight into China Doll. Leaves me breathless.

Beautiful spaced out jazz. Sounds for a second like Jer wanted to go into Stella right before Drums.
