Mind Left Body Jam
Oct. 18, 1978
Winterland Arena

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

Eyes Of The World

MacArthur Court, U of Oregon

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.

Mind Left Body Jam
June 8, 1992
Richfield Coliseum

MLB and Dear Prudence share a trait. They both involve repeating chromatic sequences that consist of four descending notes.
Sugaree
Aug. 14, 1981
Seattle Center Coliseum

The third solo break is one of the best episodes in any Sugaree. (The first is ok, the second not bad). The 3rd break starts out spacey and delicate. Eventually it reaches the flight of the bumblebee. That 3rd break is worth a listen at volume.
Eyes Of The World
Nov. 5, 1979
The Spectrum

For me, the most ethereal Eyes. Sublime yet uptempo, but never screeching - that's the ethereal part. Just moving along apace, in the clouds. Rarely this soft again until the slowdown a decade later.
Dupree's Diamond Blues
Oct. 2, 1977
Paramount Theatre

The admittedly awesome bust out of Casey Jones (show opener, an obvious number 1) has 11 times the votes (on the day I write this).
