Very long, jazzy, interstellar sort of Space from the October 74 Winterland "retirement" shows leading straight into an eerie, lysergic Other One

Providence Civic Center

Dicks Picks 12 version, standalone Eyes, Jerry and Phil's interplay is some of the best ever!!! Compact, concise, beefy, and melodic.

Truckin'
Dec. 2, 1973
Music Hall

Briliant version outta He's Gone, forsakes the all out bluesy, rockin' type of Truckin' for a snaky, bluesy, up-to-no-good sound.

Wharf Rat

Well, actually, 74, but an excellent choice, nevertheless!
Playin' In The Band

Eyes Of The World

The drummers sort of go to sleep on this one, but Jer and Bruce keep the fires burnin!!! Jer's solos so fluid and fast and jazzy, with Hornsby's beautiful open latin chords...
