Eyes Of The World
June 10, 1990
Cal Expo

I was hoping to see this Eyes up here. Such a great flow throughout the song all of the solos are real fluent and Jerry finds excellent hooks along the way. This one is excellent listen in.
He's Gone

Raceway Park

They took a break to get their heads together before this one. And it worked. Phil drops a monster bomb following the vocal jam, that seems to feed the manic ending into a killer NFA.
The Other One
Sept. 3, 1972
Folsom Field, University of Colorado

Creativity abounds on this multi-faceted 01. Jammy and thoughtful it's so good!
Dancin' in the Streets
