1st version and Keith's 1st show. Jerry's voice is clear and full of meaning and remorse. Very beautiful.

Deep Elem Blues

Unique as an electric funky blues. The only recording of it between 70 and 78 in a studio rehearsal. Pity this didn't go into rotation this way.

Historic oddity. Keith's rehearsal and three weeks before the first live version. Alternate lyrics, but fun. Some sound issues, tape wobble/speed.

Historic moment with Keith's rehearsals, so there's that. But there's also some magic here and they really bite into the groove. Some sound issues.

Totally nuts. The jam is supernova material.

Nice long ride. Up and down, squiggling peaks followed by blissful space, followed by further peaks....

Just amazing. Where's the rest of the show?

Nice but incomplete. We'd be grateful for any link to a full show during this amazingly dead month.

The meltdown shoots you out of a cannon like surpise ayahuasca after the deceptively mellow vocals.

Short and sweet. Really mellow vocals followed by a shot-out-of-the-cannon meltdown right into a great Eyes.
