Eyes Of The World

There's a beautiful 16mm video of this on YouTube -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mf1dNTexCL4. Some absolutely beautiful runs by Jerry here

Turn On Your Love Light
June 14, 1968
Fillmore East

Not the best sound quality, but the quality shines through. Deserves a listing. Jerry and Bill K. on top form

Me and My Uncle
April 26, 1972
Jahrhunderthalle

This needs more votes. It's confident, solid, well-delivered, and bouncy as hell.

Turn On Your Love Light
Nov. 7, 1969
Fillmore Auditorium

Dynamic. Not the best, perhaps, but a 25-minute version from DP16 that's definitely worth listing.

Caution
Feb. 24, 1968
Kings Beach Bowl

An absolute monster. From 'Dick's Picks Vol. 22'. The way Pigpen's vocals are recorded, weaving in and out of the rhythm tracks, is truly haunting.

They Love Each Other
May 8, 1977
Barton Hall - Cornell University

Jerry plays well here, but Keith does wonderfully. He was so on it for this show.
The Other One
April 7, 1972
Wembley Empire Pool

Inspired sandwich. This is one of the very best "O1"s of '72, if not the best - less spacey and more focused than 4/26/72. 'Steppin' Out' is a wonderful album, and this "O1" is one of the main reasons why.
El Paso

Wembley Empire Pool

The 'O1' sandwich is INSPIRED. And this is a great version.
Turn On Your Love Light
Feb. 13, 1970
Fillmore East

There's a bit of semi-complacent comping in the middle, but on the whole, Pigpen's enjoying himself, Garcia's guitar tone is magnetic, and I'd forgive anything after the hour of incandescence they just inflicted upon their crowd at the Fillmore East on 13 February.
Dark Star

Fillmore East

Majestic. Particularly beautiful in its second half. But hell, the whole damn thing's SPECIAL. Touched by God.
