Jerry flubs the cheap hotel, but it's OK. His guitar makes up for it. Check out last couple minutes. Builds beautifully. Just a notch below 9/19.

Scorching. Just flipping through the 1990 Garden run. Surprised this ain't here already. Bruce's 1st official night as a member of the band.

Awesome. David Murray starts jamming fantastically about halfway through.

Weird one for sure. Starts as Spanish Jam, Bobby has a great notion, throws in O1 lyrics. Always good pair. Into Stellar Stella Blue-GDTRFB-Around...

Jerry's guitar scorches throughout, with genuine pin drop moments, followed by sweeping beauty. Coda laments for Stella are short but sweet.

Wow!!! Gorgeous!!!! May not share quite the same urgency of 11/4/77 and 10/29/77... but has its own urgent beauty!!!

Interesting and cool 3-way tie for tenth best Eyes here! Still say this is the most powerful, but the other 2 (10/29/77, 5/22/77) are amazing as well. 10/29 will probably pull ahead, has a few more votes since Dave's 33 release (Deservedly! It's absurdly wild!) but this Eyes (Dave's 12, 11/4/77) is still the go to, all time favorite for some of us. Last few minutes are so ridiculous!!! Listen to all 3 again and again and enjoy!!!

Like everything that did not make the cut to DP 3, this shoulda made the cut. And yet, DP 3 is still one of the greatest albums of all time. Again, go figure.....
