This whole show just has it. The best versions of this song are played with patience into the bridge and the backgrounds are key. This ones a clinic.

Agreed Klaus. I know that moment for what you speak of in the solo. I wait for it everytime - and it is just amazing.

People must have missed this one. Come on and check it out. An excellent Eyes - with great, creative playing and solid vocals throughout.
New Minglewood Blues

Jer's solo is just so heavy in this version.

Exploratory jam with several Bobby led sequences. A high quality version following a hot S>F. Great 2nd set.
