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

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.

Franklin's Tower
May 15, 1981
Rutgers Athletic Center

Inasmuch as this is a cocaine-fueled Franklin's, it's at least in the top 5 for the hyperspeed versions. I think top 10 for the stand alone variety as well. It's shortish (10 min.), but it gets to the point in a way that Cape Cod doesn't and there is all this virtuoso playing.

By the time they get to Franklin's Tower, they're cooking. Jerry is really aggressive - from the first note on.

The section before rio grandeo is delicate and resplendent.
