Jerry’s vocals as heartbreaking as ever. Gorgeous, lilting.

At times pretty, at times a little weird, but somewhere past 8 minutes, it's downright gorgeous...

Absolutely gorgeous! Nearly as nice as the 11/4/77 Eyes at Colgate, with not quite the same outrageous sense of urgency as that one... And yep, into a savage Samson.....

Holy cow. Wonderful and unique all over the place. Powerful, too.

Wow. Jerry goes a little bananas, as only he can, toward the end, after a beauty of a loping, grooving Eyes. Wow. Hearing this for the first time in a long time, not sure why it doesn't get more attention. Everything before space is spectacular, and it has a long, powerful first set.
