As far as these pre-August 74 versions go, pretty darn good; certainly far better than Veneta

Not the all-time best but surely deserves to be on the list

Eyes Of The World
June 30, 1974
Civic Center

Outstanding Eyes from an outstanding show. The band is relaxed, gloopy and not looking to smoke anyone this night. The whole show rather has a contented feeling, which will grow on you until you recognize its greatness.

When Phil drops out it seems to meander (see also 6-16) but for some reason it seems to work out; they're like kids in the basement playing their big brothers' instruments on those parts, but the kids have got something...

Hey hey hey! Another relaxed groove from this awesome show

No one is in a hurry or try to impress anyone this show, which is what makes it so great

A gloopy version somewhat similar to Providence, minus the intro jam. Wonderful stuff.
