An MLB and Mojo jam hybrid. Already submitted as mojo by cgarces. Only 3 minutes, but worth the trip.

Eyes Of The World

This one gets to a crazy place before drums, which, it turns out, is a prankster reunion.

Eyes Of The World
April 8, 1978
Veterans Memorial Coliseum

The Eyes of the 1st S>F>E>E sequence. A lot of piano, some episodes of beauty and, near the end, some rio-grandeo-type quiet to loud modulation.

The Music Never Stopped

McNichols Arena

Underrated.

Frailing or fanning - or whatever you want to call it - isn't my favorite way for a Jerry solo to peak, but the frailing in the second break is clean, clear and powerful. This is a good recommendation.

I thought this was great. I saw you comment on this a couple days ago and I put it at the top of my list. You're right darkstar, it's not the best ever, but it's much better than many of the 7 minute, perfunctory halfsteps you'll find from 85-95. I just don't have enough time to listen these days, especially when school starts. If I ever make it to retirement, this music is going to replace a big chunk of my work life. Next up is that 12/11/72 halfstep you mentioned and then I'm going to get on that 77 halfstep project - complete with one of Sharleena's spreadsheets.

Great ship, darkstar. Let this video take you back: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-Sc02NqsBgs

Who doesn't love Bruce Hornsby? This version is clean and played with enthusiasm. This is the set 2 opener and there's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeqN1fRWjGA
