Black Peter

Allan Kirby Field House

Why isn't this here? Cippolina chips in to make this a unique, and fully voiced Peter.

MONSTER two-keyboard version, with Bob just nailing it to the wall emotionally.

My first trip to The Station. The massive post-song jam had me mesmerized.

Eyes Of The World
Sept. 7, 1973
Nassau Coliseum

Wow! This is a blisteringly hot Eyes. Not even that jazzy...just relentless and rippin'! It's like they channeled 1977 for a sec. Keith on electric keys, Phil jam, and Jer shreds...what more do you need? Perhaps second only to 6/18/74, imo
Eyes Of The World
May 17, 1974
P.N.E. Coliseum

Love Keith's work on the Fender Rhodes here...just the jazzy touch Eyes calls for. (edit) Wow. The official release of this from the PNW '73-'74 box set sounds AMAZING. This one should be ranked higher. Period.
Looks Like Rain
Dec. 1, 1979
Stanley Theater

Awesome rolling thunder effects by the drummers lead this one off
Turn On Your Love Light
Dec. 28, 1969
International Speedway

This one should be much higher...just saturated with that certain energy and it's own kind of ramshackle perfection
Alligator
Nov. 10, 1967
Shrine Auditorium

WOW. Drippy lysergic weirdness...
